I'm a tattoo fan, but no names for me.

Never. With my luck as soon as I did it, they'd break up with me or get hit by a MACK truck....so it's best I don't.

You're aware that Family First is the name of a conservative, right wing political party?

..::Family First Party::..

Oh and to answer the OP, my Dad has my name tattooed on his left arm, been there since I was born.
Not sure that I'd want to be tattooing names on me.

I wont ever put someones name on me. But I do have a couple of tatts, one is visible and one isnt. Except maybe in the shower. But Im going to have them change the pic a little, eventually, on that one.

No, I wouldn't tattoo a name on myself. Since I'm the type who completely moves on after a break-up, I couldn't handle an ex's name on something so personal. I would've been miserable had I gotten my first husband's name branded on my body. Yeech!

I had an ex get my name tattooed on his arm while we were dating. I warned him not to do it! but he did it anyway. When we broke up, he got a tribal design tattooed over my name, which was just fine with me. However, he took the break-up pretty hard, sometimes stopping by my work and following me out to the parking lot. As he was doing this he said, "I may have tattooed over your name, but it is still there underneath just like you will always be in my heart." It sounds sweet, but he started stalking me shortly thereafter. Creepy!

I'd probably never get any name or title or anything tattooed on me. TBH, I'm not a big fan of "text" tattoos either. One of my old friends had his best friend's DOB-DOD tattooed on his arm though, and that kind of thing I don't mind so much (I don't mind number tats so much).

But name tattoos in general are just a very bad idea. I remember watching an episode of LA Ink where some chick wanted to get her boyfriend/fiance's name tattooed on her back and they spent quite a while trying to talk her out of it. I think eventually they convinced her to get a tattoo of something else, but I can't remember.

I also have a friend that tattooed his OWN name on his arm, which isn't as bad as someone else's name, IMO, but it was still pretty ridiculous.

I'll probably get my kids initials incorporated in my next design....and the tattoo I have down the middle of my back signifies my husband and myself. Its two entertwined figures....probably a ft long...
