Foster
フォスター is the name Foster in Japanese.
Note: Because this title is entirely Japanese Katakana, it should be written by a Japanese calligrapher.
Foster
佛史特爾 is the name Foster in Chinese (Mandarin).
Riko / Yuriko / Noriko / Satoshi
This can be the Japanese female given names Riko, Yuriko, Noriko, or Satoshi.
A little awkwardly, when pronounced as Satoko, this means foster child.
Literally, the characters mean “village child.”
Forever Family
永遠的家 is a special phrase that we composed for a “family by adoption” or “adoptive family.”
It's the dream of every orphan and foster child to be formally adopted and find their “forever family.”
The first two characters mean forever, eternal, eternity, perpetuity, immortality, and/or permanence. The third character connects this idea with the last character which means “family” and/or “home.”

Qian
This can be the Chinese ancient surname Gan or current surname Qian. In Japanese, it can be the surname Nukui, Susumu, Ken, Kan, Kawaki, Kawai, Inute, or Inui.
The meaning of this character varies a lot depending on context. These meanings include dry, clean, foster, adoptive, heaven, male, masculine, enduring, or continual.
The “Gan” version of this character was converted to Simplified Chinese as 干 in 1965. However, the “Qian” pronunciation is not associated with 干. Though to add to the confusion, there is an unrelated Simplified Chinese character 千 that romanizes as “Qian” and is also a surname.
