Nobutatsu is Japanese in Origin.

Rooted in Japanese, Nobutatsu (のぶたつ) is a masculine given name composed of Nobu + Tatsu, with meaning determined by the kanji chosen. Common pairings include 信達 (“faith, attainment”), 伸達 (“to extend and reach”), 信龍/信竜 (“faithful dragon”), or 延辰 (“prolonged/everlasting + Dragon zodiac”). Other possibilities exist, as both Nobu (信, 伸, 宣, 延, etc.) and Tatsu (達, 龍/竜, 辰) have multiple name readings, so parents can tailor nuance from “trust fulfilled” to “steadfast dragon.”

In use from at least the 20th century, Nobutatsu has traditional flavor and is now uncommon among newborns, though familiar as a formal, dignified choice; bearers sometimes shorten it to Nobu or Tatsu. Variant representations are primarily alternate kanji spellings; related names include Nobuo, Nobuteru, Tatsuya, and Tatsuo. Romanization follows Hepburn as Nobutatsu, with Kunrei/Nihon-shiki rendering Nobutatu.
