In Japanese, it is written as 頼 - and is read, when presented alone as a name, as Rai.
It only really shows up alone as a name of Chinese origin though. There are plenty of names that use it with another character that are more Japanese. It`s usually read in those names as "Yori" (Like in 頼本 or 頼定) - but also occasionally as Rai when in a multi-character name too.
At least according to my dictionary.
