Name & Surname Transliterator (Cyrillic ⇄ Latin)
Type a full name in Cyrillic — first name, surname, patronymic — and get the correctly capitalised Latin version, or type it in Latin letters and get Cyrillic back. Choose the Russian or Uzbek scheme to match the name.
Getting name capitalisation right
Names need each word capitalised correctly, including compound letters — a name written in Cyrillic as "Шаҳноза" must become "Shahnoza", not "SHahnoza" or "shahnoza". This tool's engine detects word boundaries and applies proper title-case to every name and surname you enter, including names built from the oʻ and gʻ letters.
Useful for CVs, forms, and travel documents
Job applications, university admissions, hotel bookings and visa forms outside Uzbekistan almost always ask for a Latin-script name. Paste a full name — or a whole list, one per line — and get a clean, correctly capitalised result you can paste straight into any form.
Frequently asked questions
How do I write a surname or patronymic in Cyrillic?+
Type it in Latin letters — for example Zhukov or Sergeyevich — and pick the Russian scheme (it's the default on the Russian page). You get Жуков or Сергеевич. For Uzbek names such as Xasanov, keep the Uzbek scheme and you get Хасанов.
Why can the result differ from the spelling in my passport?+
Passports use their own official variants (Russian passports follow an ICAO scheme where й is i, ю is iu and я is ia). The converter gives the standard spelling; for official documents always copy the spelling printed in the document itself.
Does this match the spelling on my passport exactly?+
It applies the standard Latin transliteration rules, which match most passports issued after the Latin alphabet became standard. Some older passports used slightly different Cyrillic-to-Latin mapping conventions for names — if your passport spelling differs, always match your passport for official documents.
Can I convert a whole list of names at once?+
Yes — paste multiple names, one per line, into the text box and every line converts at once.
