Tips

usage
尾崎 is the Japanese surname Ozaki ( "tail" + "steep cape"), read in Mandarin as Wěiqí. Notable bearers: 尾崎 (Ozaki Yutaka, 1965–1992) — iconic Japanese rock singer-songwriter; 尾崎 (Ozaki Kōyō, 1868–1903) — Meiji-era novelist (Konjiki Yasha); 尾崎 (Ozaki Yukio) — "father of Japanese parliamentary politics." Mandarin readers see 尾崎 in lit. crit. and J-rock contexts.
memory
Japanese surnames borrowed into Chinese keep their kanji and get standard Mandarin readings — you don't try to approximate the Japanese sounds. So 尾崎 (Ozaki in Japanese) becomes Wěiqí, just as 田中 (Tanaka) becomes Tiánzhōng.
