This site has an excellent English-Chinese Dictionary. If you're looking for translations ( for tat's and so on )why not use it. It is impossible to directly translate names letter by letter into Chinese Characters, so don't try. Chinese Characters do not represent letters. You can try the syllable sounds , but you might end up with a name that sounds like yours and means 'dog fart' So you'd be better off giving yourself a Chinese name.
