    Default Is it weird to tat your dad's initials?

    I am goin to get a tat and I want it on my shoulder (a la Rihanna) but kinda undecided on what I want.
    I was thinking on want my daddys initials.. but is that weird? He means the world to me, more so than the rest of my family.
    Or I was thinking to tattoo EVERY FAILURE A LESSON (can u tell I am inspired by Rihanna?) on my shoulder... or something a long those lines.
    I just wanted to know if it would be weird to tat my daddy initials.... ?

    If he has been a constant inspiration in your life, then I don't think so. However, I'm not a believer of tattooing anyone's name/initials on the body... after all sometimes people can let you down. Of course, you can probably tell I don't really have 100% faith in people 100% of the time, so it's probably not something I'd do.

    This sounds bad but if I was going to tattoo any initials it would be my dog and cat, and if I had kids. Otherwise I doubt it.

    I believe no tattoo is weird as long as there is a story or something symbolic that's meaningful too you. If your father means so much to you the way you say he does than DO IT : ) I think it would mean a lot to him too.

    My husband's (a tattoo artist) rules for names and initials: blood related or dead, if they are related they will always be related and if they are dead they can't come back and piss you off.

    It's YOUR tattoo so it's going to be on YOUR body forever: if it's something that means enough to you that you want it on you forever, go for it. Who gives a fuck what anyone else thinks?

    Just remember who help give You life if that does not earn him the right to be part of You body art, nothing does. Yes true keep lettering to Blood relation or dead. Or if You still don't know two options, one get some art that represents Him to You, or wait a while til You are sure. Tattoos do not fade much, And I know they are expensive to remove. Be sure and be proud when You are done.

    I don't think it's a good idea. One universal truth I've learned over my 35 years on this planet. Just when you think someone won't kick you right in the face, they do, and with a steel toed boot. If you want to feel real pain, just let yourself trust another human being. Doesn't matter if they are related to you or not, and it's doubly true with men, even if they are your daddy. Unless the person is dead and can no longer do anything, I'd avoid it, and even then, they probably fucked you over in some way that you just don't know about yet.

    I always said I would never tattoo a man's name on my body but my dad passed away and I tattooed his name and the date to my ankle. If I have a son I might tattoo his name but I highly doubt I will tattoo a bf or husband's name on my body because if it doesnt work out I'll be stuck seeing his name on me.

    It is not something I would do and I think some people would find it weird, but it is your body and your dad. Enjoy the experience =]

    I think it is very very very weird. But that is just me, you asked and you got, but it is your body... If you have to ask if it is weird, maybe you need to think a little longer to make your decision.

    Sorry girl, didn't mean to over do it. I have been camming and lots of my pvts want daddy daughter, or MILF, or you know what I mean... and all of that came rushing to my mind when I read your question. I am sure if you decide to do it, it will be good for you!!!

    I actually have my Dads name tattooed on me! Although my Dad can be a dick, he will always be my daddy...I am also adding pieces for my mom and my sister, although they have asked to be represented by something, rather than having a name.

    Like Susan-Va said, there are certain rules for tattooing names (I'm a piercer in a shop, as well as an apprentice) and blood relations are ok, in fact, they are pretty common! "Mom" and "Dad" tattoos are incredibly common - especially old-school inspired pieces.

    The one thing that I will say as someone in the industry - it sounds like you are really into the idea of having a tattoo for the sake of having a tattoo, and are trying to find something that would be meaningful. This can be a bit of a minefield, and I would definitely think long and hard about the things that mean the most to you, about every possible way that something can be taken, considered or seen, and about how well something will age. I don't think that all tattoos should have meaning - beauty for the sake of beauty is a completely valid reason, but a tattoo for the sake of a tattoo could be a bad idea...I absolutely don't want this to come off condescending or anything like that - but I really think that you should put a LOT of thought into your first piece.

    ^^ Thank you. This will actually be my third tattoo...and I AM putting lots of thought into it, since I keep going back and forth with the idea of too many tats versus just one more. So, thank you, I definitely will think long and hard

    ^^^ Awesome! What else have you got?

    And I'm so glad that you didn't take that the wrong way...I sometimes get super concerned that I'm going to word things the wrong way and it'll come out all arrogant...xxx

    I dont think it is.. If the person means a lot to you and you look up towards them.. Go for it. Know it will with you forever, during ups and downs (with this person) and youll still have the tattoo. But I think nothing is wrong with that...

    Got my tat done last night and its something that means a lot to me, that ive been thinking about doing for months now. It is from a song by Scarface and says Take Away Their Fears in cursive inside my wrist.
    I was abused SO badly growing up (not by my dad,he lived sooooooo far away and eventually took custody of me before they killed me) so this phrase means so much to me, I wish children never have to suffer like I did...

    my cousin just got her dad's name and his favorite saying tattooed on her body because he just passed from cancer... its your body and if it feels right to you, do it up.


    although when i was in the tattoo parlor with her, one lady came up to the counter and said "i'd like to price a tattoo" and they said "ok, what kind of tattoo are you looking to get?" and the lady said "i want a heart with a name on it, on my shoulder" and they asked "what name?" and she said "sonny, the name of my cat that just died"

    .............

    this is awful but i had to do everything i could to not burst out laughing, and/or crying lol

    If it would not personally make you feel weird about having it there then do it. I have my sis, great aunt and my initials tattoed on me in a way that kinda makes it look all like one, but I just thought of how much she meant to us. I knew it was right. My sis and I aren't even really close, but she'll always be my sis and I love her regardless. Its perfect and when I touch it, it makes me feel closer in my heart and gives me hope that things between us may change.
    Thank Goodness I smartened up! The old me is dead and gone.
