This translation is shared by actress and comedienne Bea Arthur (ビアトリス・アーサー), playwright and essayist Arthur Miller (アーサー・ミラー), and English singer and musician James Arthur (ジェイムズ・アーサー). It's also the katakana spelling for English association football player Arthur Okonkwo (アーサー・オコンクウォ).
Modern katakana was extended to write foreign words and names more faithfully. Arthur pronounced ar-thur in katakana is アーサー read āsā. On the other hand, hiragana adheres to traditional Japanese spellings. Arthur in hiragana is ああさあ read aasaa.
