bō luó
hara
波羅 is a common way to write Polo in Chinese.
This would also be the way to write Polo for the surname or the car made by Volkswagen (the Polo model is sold worldwide with the exception of the USA). It can also refer to Marco Polo in Chinese.
In Japanese, this is a name that romanizes as Hara.
mǎ qiú
馬球 is the Chinese title of the ancient game of polo.
During the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD), the elite and rich would mount their horses and engage in this rigorous sport. It is the only sport of that period where women were also known to play.
The original polo came from Persia and may have been played in China hundreds of years before the Tang popularized it.
The characters "馬球" literally mean "horse ball."
poro
ポロ is the name Polo or Pollo in Japanese Katakana.
Note: Because this title is entirely Japanese Katakana , it should be written by a Japanese calligrapher.
mǎ kě bō luó
馬可波羅 is the Chinese title for Marco Polo, the Venetian explorer who traveled the Silk road to China in the late 1200's AD.
水球 is the Chinese, Japanese Kanji, and old Korean Hanja title for water polo.
The literal meaning of the characters is "water ball".
