HEY!! JAPANESE LANGBLR! i have another question </3

so like... names! i hear that katakana is for writing names + foreign words, but i see names written in hiragana, katakana, and kanji. so i'm, confused.

is it not strictly katakana? is it up to preference? is it specifically foreign names are written in katakana and japanese names are written in kanji or hiragana? is, say, writing a name written in katakana in hiragana/kanji or vice versa wrong? i've been wondering for a while but i just dunno where to look </3

ty in advance </3..
