The easiest way is to find an Urdu letter that corresponds to the pronunciation of your Urdu name. For example, if your name is “Maya,” you can use the letter م for the “m” sound,” ا for “aa” sound, ی for “ya” sound, then ا for “aa” sound. You just need to put them together and write مایا for “Maya.”

hi! Lisa
آپ کا نام اردو میں "لیزا" (Lisa / leezah) لکھا جائے گا۔ (Your name in Urdu would be written as "لیزا" (Lisa / leezah).) However, it is common to see "لیزا" (Liza / leezah) used in Urdu, as the pronunciation is very similar. Both are correct, but if you prefer "لیسا" (Lisa / leesa), you can use that as well.
If you have any questions, please let us know.
