Name tattoo

Tattoo - Getting a Name Tattooed?

It is fairly common for someone to get a tattoo representing another person. And of course one of the easiest ways to do that is by getting that persons name tattooed. Here are some important points about name tattoos.

1. Boyfriend/Girlfriend names. Some tattoo artists in the past frowned upon and sometimes refused to do names, mainly girlfriend or boyfriend names due to the likely hood of major regret that would come soon down the road. If you want to get a tattoo representing your partner, it's advisable to get some sort of design or object which represents the relationship, rather than a name. That way, when it ends, and relationships usually do end, then you won't be left with a name, you'll be left with a design which can signify not just that other person, but can symbolize your life during that time and the emotions and desires you once felt with another human being.

2. Scripts. Be sure and research all the different scripts, or style of writing that you can have your name tattoo drawn in. With all the various styles now, a name tattoo can become a design of it's own, and can better blend in with another tattoo design.

3. Consider including a design. While a name can be drawn in an artful manner, often times you may want some type of art to accompany that name. This can be a portrait of the individual, an object or design that individual took a liking too, or some sort of artwork that can represent your relationship with that person. Artwork accompanying a name tattoo can strengthen and better tell the story behind the ink. ( By Chess McDoogle )
