My cat's name is Eirenaios, and I want to sow his name onto his bed(to cover a picture of a dog)using ancient greek characters. Can someone direct me in the right direction, or know the ancient greek characters?

To Xamanator: No... The answer is ΕΙΡΗΝΑΙΟΣ / Ειρηναίος
(Nice name, btw. It's stem is ειρην-. Ειρήνη means peace).

The reason why it's not ΕΙΡΕΝΑΙΟΣ is that in ancient times the H symbol used to be a long E. But spelling is spelling.
(Modern Greek characters resemble the Ancient Greek characters. If you want to give an ancient style, try to make letters seem more "triangular", e.g. write O as a rhombus, Ρ (greek R) as a triangular flag etc).

This is an easy one.
If you want capitals, EIPENAIO- and the final character is that zigzag like a reversed Z or spiky S with an extra bottom stroke.
