"The name can mean more than that, it depends on how it's written in Kanji.  It's typically non-Japanese that would write a Japanese name using hiragana, or even katakana, but we don't write our names that way, we use Kanji, and katakana is reserved for foreign names and words, as well as Japanese onomatopoeia. Hiragana is just easier to learn and read than Kanji, but if you don't learn the Kanji you're going to really struggle reading Japanese names and words in general."
