Well, the first and middle names seem to be OK, but doinkies would spell the last name as "Kurupitto".

Your name as written in katakana would be トーマス・ライアン・クルピット, then.

In katakana we write トミー not トミイ for tomii (from your signature)

Well actually, in your case, the vowels i and a would be lengthened, so your last name written in Japanese would actually be ピーターソン (Piitaason).

Then again, that would be with the English pronunciation of Peter...I don't know how it's pronounced in Danish.

Ah, so it's pronounced "eh" and not "ee"? Well in that case, it would probably be ぺテルソン (Peteruson), then.
