My Man has my name tattooed on himself.



When he got it done, the artist said, "And if you break up with her, I can turn it into an eight ball or something." My Man said "No, she'd still be the mother of my children (the kids names are part of the tattoo, too) and the love of my life."



Cool, huh?

I never really thought about it, because I never had any intentions in doing so. Probably not.

I have my ex-husband's name tattooed on my lower back. Luckily it's tiny and easy to cover up, but it's in such a prime tattoo real estate location that I haven't found anything I want to cover it with yet and I won't just get something silly just to block it right away. And since I don't see it, it really doesn't bother me.



But would I do it again? Yup. Just because my first marriage didn't work doesn't mean that I'll never do any of the same things again. A little black ink above my ass is by far one of the least troublesome parts of divorcing him.

Probably not for a while, but that's just us. My husband and I both feel like the significant other's name as a tattoo should be something more like what you both do as a 50th anniversary or something like that. But so long as each half of the couple is ok with it, there's nothing really wrong with it.

Getting your S/O's name tattooed on you is often considered a "tattoo curse". I'd be more likely to get a symbol to represent him or our relationship than just his name.

I'd never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever, I can't type ever enough. I'd never get his name on me. Even after we got married, there's a ring. And I'll take his last name, that's about all I'm doing.

I respect the other couples who can do that, I have omega trust issues so I couldn't do it, even after we got married.

No, never, never ever. Things change. I have had people want to get my name tattooed on them. I didn't want them to. To me, it's like branding property. Plus, it's super lame when shit doesn't work out. I don't need a name on me.

P'gell, that is cool.

The man I marry will have his name written on my heart, not my skin.

P'Gell, that is awesome! I wouldn't mind if he got my name but I wouldn't get his. I don't want any tats so it wouldn't make sense to get his. I'd wear a piece of jewelry for him though.

I'm not a name person for tattoos anyway, so I'm kinda biased. I don't think I'd do something that blatant, maybe if my guy was into the whole tattoo thing I would something that's a symbol for him.

We don't do tattoos - but if I did, my girl's name would make the list.

I don't want a tattoo but if I did I wouldn't ever get a partner's name tattooed on me!

I feel like it might jinx the relationship if I did that. plus I don't really like tatoos anyway

I might do it. It could always be covered. I'm more likely to get something that's a symbol of our relationship or some little inside joke we share. It seems more personal and no one is going to be asking about the person.

I love tattoos, but I'd never get someone elses name on me. I wouldn't want someone else to get my name on their body either.

I don't think I would ever get my partner's name tattooed on my body... just seems like it wouldn't be a good idea.

He wanted to get my portrait on him but I told him no. As for names, I dont think its smart. Weve been together almost 7 years and we may be forever but its weird to me. Pet names and child names or even RIP with names I think are appropriate but relationships dont need to be branded like that.

We do however have a matching tattoo and I think thats the best way to go. That way if anything ever does happen its not a name.

I would, if I was going to get a tattoo.

Most people I know who have had a name tattooed on them are no longer with that person. Now, I don't actually believe in jinxes, but I would feel like maybe that would jinx us. lol I'd rather wear his ring on my finger and his last name.

I love tattoos, I have two, but don't want another's name on my bod.

I wouldn't. Not because things could always change, but because it's a rather cliche tattoo.

I might do a symbol representing him, but never a name.

I want to really badly. My husband doesn't like the idea.
I just want it small somewhere not many people will see.

No, because if our love didn't last forever their name would still be on me. Also, depending on the placement, text doesn't always hold up as you age...
If my partner meant that much to me, we'd get an abstract symbol of our love: I once met a lesbian couple who'd had their wedding rings tattooed on their fingers in a Celtic knot design, and their vows tattooed down their calves in the Chinese writing system only used by women in the Forbidden City.

That's something we've thought about doing. Getting either a matching tattoo or our wedding bands tattooed on us.
