A young woman I work with has her own name tattooed on her wrist (in a nearly unreadable cursive script, surrounded by stars obviously) and another woman has a tattoo on the back of her neck in Arabic (or pseudo-Arabic, I have no idea) which apparently is her name. Is getting your own name as a tattoo a Thing now?

An old manager of mine had his name in big block letters on his arm. That's the exact thing he said when I asked him about it. Of course he was from Oklahoma and they're strange folks..

I met a guy once who had his last name tattooed on his chest, and he told me a story about how once he got arrested because the cops thought he was someone else, and they let him go because he was like, "I swear I'm who I say I am, look at my chest! Would I have this if I were that other guy?"

You guys all missed the obvious answer. These names are tattooed on the backsides of women (and the fronts of men) to prevent the always awkward calling out of the wrong name during intercourse. :eng101:

Thank God I didn't get it- I reread 100 Bullets last year and realized how terrible it is. I could have been stuck with that.

Getting your name tattooed on yourself has to be the least creative idea possible for a tattoo. To me it just looks like you really wanted a tattoo but couldn't think of anything else that you like or even something that would just look kinda cool instead.

It depends on context. If your name was something that is an important family line in a family tree, like being part of a clan or something, getting it tattooed on you isn't so farfetched. But you should probably still live in the country that heritage is from, intend to move back to that country, or at least be invested in it beyond "oh yeah my mom's from scotland"

I was browsing entries for a Norwegian tattoo contest, and...







:nws: due to boobs

And my definite favourite:



You can find them all here. You can filter by county and municipality too, so if you're Norwegian, you can check what tools live in your town!

Two minute google search found me a slightly less terrible representation of what I assume this person was going for.



But the "sad walleyed cartoon John Travolta circa Saturday Night Fever but with devil horns" look is fine too if that's what you want.

Common Missouri tradition calls for its inhabitants to pay $40 for a kitchen wizard to tattoo symbols of their ancestral origins somewhere on themselves, no matter how far removed generationally from that heritage. Also, it must always be a combination of England, France, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, and/or Germany. Anyone (like me) who cannot trace their lineage entirely back to those few countries is subject to a childhood of ridicule from the racially pure yokels.

Like this.
