Hmm... why would you like to do that? I've never really seen
the need for that.

As there are fields called  Last & First Name (Kanji) and Last & First name (Kana) on 
my forms. Its the need of the application.
It would be great, If I could do that.

I'm sure there will be a lot of issues if you want to write
one yourself...
Actually, I have tried to do it, but it wont understand some characters. Like â.

That's a library for character code conversion.
