the first two characters are Kanji from Chinese...the last three are Katakana which is Japanese letters that have sounds so you have "ha" "ru" "na" so it either says "haruna" or halna...."r" and "l" are the same sound in Japanese.

I'm very confused by the use of Chinese kanji and Japanese katakana in combination...

I get confused at chinese restaurants so i'm not even going to attempt to understand this bottle.

well, it's like this ...not everything can be expressed in Kanji. Names can be especially difficult. Often Japanese born in other countries are limited in what they can name their children if they want a "western" sounding name...IF they want to be able to sign their name with Kanji (as most Japanese...but not all...do) ...so in America you get a lot of "Ken" or even "Aiden" as those names have Kanji equivalents. So in this case "haruna" most likely cannot be expressed in Kanji. The Japanese actually have 3 writing systems and if you count "Romanji" (Latin alphabet)..they have 4.


but this explains it better than me...
