My Dad wants to get a tattoo with my name on it. And it has to be huge. My nickname (or the name my parents call me) is Annie. Does anyone have any ideas? Because I'm coming up really short.

Well he wants a tatto with my name and a design. And he wants me to draw it. *hide* (i'm pretty good, but something that's going to be on my dad arm forever?!)

What about a design of something that means something really special to you and somehow have your name put with it in a real unusual style font, one that really seems to go with who you are, that way it has a lot of meaning behind it.
Most Tattooists use a design done for them and change it up a little bit to make it more of their own work, mine does that everytime, so doing a design yourself would be fine.

It's bad luck to tatoo someone's name on you </superstitious>. But Emgee's right. I'll be happy to help you design it if you like.

I LOVE YOU GUYS FOR OFFERING TO HELP ME BRAINSTORM! See I don't want it to be cheesy or really cutesy because this is going on a guy, forever.
But I agree about the slight creepiness, I was like, WHAT? With my name? Then my dad makes it 'better' by saying I can draw it.
If you give me some starting idea, I'd bet I'd be able to come up with something cool, and I might be able to scan it at school to show y'all!
Oncce again, thank you. =D

I'm against the whole name-tattoo thing in general, but one tattoo my friend has is really cool. He has his deceased aunt's name written in sanskrit on his bicep.
I guess the problem with name-tats is that a lot of the time they just look silly. There has to be some element of pattern or overall composition. And god forbid, no freaking curlicues and swags.

Every couple I know that has a partners name tattooed on one of them splits up within 6 months, my tattooist really hates doing it because they always come back in begging to get it covered. My mate got his sons full name and date of birth on his arm because he was always forgetting the date....lol. Most parents get their kids names done because it shows how much they mean to them.

See, it's not just my name, it's a design too. My dad is currently getting one done of my uncle/ his brother who dies a few years ago and it was really sad. And I love my daddy a lot and I know he loves me too.

Well for a design go with something you really love, something that symbolises who you are and means a lot to you, once you have your design worked out then it will be easy as to throw your name in there.
