Your name
Allmight
in Japanese
The default way to write Allmight in Japanese is オールマイト — a phonetic katakana spelling that captures the sound and signals, instantly to a Japanese reader, that the name comes from elsewhere. But katakana is only one of three answers Japanese gives to a foreign name.
Below, we show all three. First the official katakana. Then a set of meaning kanji chosen to express what Allmight actually means at the root — Coined name combining English 'all' (everything, universal) and 'might' (great strength, power) — meaning 'all-encompassing power' or 'supreme strength'. Finally a set of ateji, the playful tradition where the kanji match the sound and tell their own small story underneath.

Ateji — Sound + Meaning
Where the sound matches and the kanji tell their own small story. The Edo scholars and modern manga authors both played this game.
