I was talking to some people from school yesterday and told them how I had just got off the phone with Jesse and said we had talked about him being open to getting my name tattooed on him and that I was happy about it. They're like "don't do it!" and I said "I was talking about HIM getting MY name" and they said not to let him. They said it's a bad omen, etc. Do you ladies believe in that stuff? I'm planning on getting his name too and I know we are both not planning on going anywhere.

I don't know that it is necessarily a bad omen but I have known many men and women who were in relationships but not with the person whose name was inked on their body. It definitely does not mean a relationship will last. It is something one should consider since none of us knows what the future holds.

Purplegirl1008 · #3 07-24-2012, 12:57 PM

I get what you're saying. I never ever thought I would get a guy's name on me. But just knowing that he is open to getting my name really means something to me. I assumed he'd be like "hell no!" It's something we are going to discuss further when he gets home.

I just think its a bad idea. My baby has his ex wife's name tattooed on his chest. I love him with his shirt off but everytime I see her name it kills me. He actually had an appoinment to get it covered up before he was lockedup. If it doesn't work it could hurt the person they are in the relationship with next. We are thinking of getting a symbol on our wedding day but it was one we both liked before each other, so even if things don't work it is just a tattoo I wanted.

You're talking about him getting a prison tattoo - one of the very best ways to contract HIV or Hep C as well as serious hole time. If the name alone isn't a curse, that surely is! And no, I don't believe that all the artists inside are super-careful with their inks and needles. They don't have the ability or supplies to be careful enough.

I do not believe it is an omen, however I myself would not put another persons name on my body, period....Sorry I take that back, if I were the tattoo type, I would get my children's names on my body (if I had any), but not a man.

That is how I am though....to each his or her own.

Peace~

I was just thinking about this the other day. He has been asking me a lot about getting his name tattooed on me. I don't know if I think it is a bad omen or that the relationship is doomed, because to me life does not always work like that. Relationships are intricate and take work and in my opinion are not fated, doomed, etc...for any particular reason. With that being said I think I have been avoiding the subject with him because I have known a lot of people who regret getting their significant other's name for a variety of reasons. I told myself I would not get another person's name on me since I first started getting tattoos and he knows this. Truth be told though, I am wavering a bit. On the other hand I am not opposed to perhaps a symbol or something meaningful to both of us.

NO NO NO you misunderstood! I just asked him if he was open to getting my name, expecting he would say no. He's not getting any tats in there. I already asked and he hasn't gotten any in there. It's something we are going to talk about when he gets home.

Bigbirdsgirl83 · #9 07-24-2012, 05:46 PM

I don't see anything wrong with it so long as its done outside the walls. I have my boos name and have since we were together 6 months approximately... and he will have mine when he comes home BC he knows how I feel about tattoos in prison

mandarose · #10 07-24-2012, 06:06 PM

Idk if its "bad"..
But I'm not about the name tats unless it would be my Kids..
He wants us both to & at first when he showed me the tat of my name that he has drawn out I'm like awe but then when we spoke about it at a visit in March I asked him not to ever do it! And he asked why I said because i just don't believe in putting names.. I said look u have your first child's mother's name on you (its very small, can hardly see it) and I said how u feel now? You haven't been together in ages! And he said but babe I was young and said it freaking says "Kia" that shit don't mean anything I can say I love kias u know like the car? Lol I just laughed cuz he is silly.. I said so.. my ex (during our relationship) right before we broke up. Got a tat Of female 'friend' who he's known since 15 & he's 33 now. and she 'supposedly' died and that's y he did it.. well she never died.. so for me I lost any interest of a man getting my name on him, doesn't mean a lot to me after that .. because that threw me off how a man really put death on someone like that & now living under her roof.. he can't possibly love her n say some shit like that n he couldn't possibly love me like he claimed making up some low excuse like that! So I asked my man to never tattoo my name..

mich68 · #11 07-24-2012, 06:18 PM

A tattoo artist friend of mine REFUSES to tat names of anyone other than your children.
He DOES, however, make a ton of money covering up OTHER peoples' name designs, and charges double his normal rate for reworks.

Just something to consider...

tripsgirl · #12 07-24-2012, 07:09 PM

I haven't gotten my fiance's name on me. I've thought about it.. But I'm not going to do it until he gets home. He wants to do it himself since he's a tattoo artist. & where were putting it he doesn't want ANYONE near there so i'll wait.

He has my name on him twice. Both tattoos he's gotten in prison. Not a huge fan of him getting tattoos in there but my name's do look pretty good. He's got my name "Kelly" below his belly button & my 'married' initials "KBW" tattooed above his eyebrow.

I told him I don't like him getting tattoos in there because of the diseases he could get.. and he hasn't in a while so hopefully he's done.

rita mason · #13 07-24-2012, 07:15 PM

Well.. Just remember, a tattoo is permanent. It doesn't just go away when the relationship is over. However, if u do get tatted n it doesn't work out, the next man won't hold it against u if he truely loves u. My hubby has his ex's name tatted across his heart. He wants it removed but it doesn't bother me at all. She's the mother of his son. She'll always have a special place in his heart. But she's no threat 2 me so I don't mind it. I did get his name on my arm 3 years ago. We've known each other 4 over 20 years n we've been married 10 years. Getting his name tatted on me hasn't been any kinda bad omen 4 us. That was just my way of showing my hubby that when I said "I do" til death do us part, I meant it. I got his back til the end. Bottom line.. Anyone who got a name tatted on um n the relationship ended, it was gonna end anyway. It wasn't the tattoo.

Oh yeah n I'm not a fan of him getn um in there either. It's 2 scary. I don't want him catchin no diseases so I told him 2 just wait til he comes home, then he can go 2 a shop n get all the tatts he wants.

@manda: that is so funny! I met this guy on the internet last year (before jesse) and he told me about a tattoo he had. He told me he had a girl's name on his chest but supposedly she was a very good family friend who had died. Told me a big sob story about it. Then I found a piece of paper in his wallet with the same female name as his tattoo. I didn't bring it up for a while but when I did, come to find out it was his WIFE. Yep, he was married.

Oh girl he still tried BS story.. I maybe naive at times but I'm not that freakin stupid! I wanted to tell her but everyone said just let it be.. smh.. I'm not a drama person so I said you right.. just eventually pulled away.. he's a loser!

Princess1029 · #17 07-24-2012, 08:13 PM

I wouldn't ...I did in feb and now I'm thinking it was a bad idea considering we are going through a very rough spot to where I thought about splitting for awhile... Just make sure you think about it for awhile before you do it.

Yeah he sure did! I mean the tattoo was on his heart but I still fell for it! When I confronted him about "who is _______?" he's like oh that's my wife so at least he was honest (after I saw the name in his wallet). It was just a messed up situation. I honestly thought I'd never get a guy's name on me. But depending on how things are when he gets home I probably will.

Tumamita05 · #19 07-25-2012, 12:34 AM

I have my ex for 4 years on my back it's small but like sloppy can't really read it unless your up in my back starring at it - my babydaddy has been with me 5 years n he doesn't like it but in a way doesn't phase him no more sometimes he jokes n pretends to scratch it off but it's kind of impossible / lol . I'm going to get it covered I want to put my babydaddy name cause he will Lasts be my kids father je played. Big part of my life but we r always on m off now Ive been talkin to my lo that's locked up n idk if he's be upset about my babydaddy written on me

Levi's wife · #20 07-25-2012, 07:53 AM

I've been thinking about it....he has my name on him twice....once on the forearm...than again on his left ring finger.....never ever did I think about getting a tat since i think a paper cut is a national emergency...and the pain from a needle would probably hurt just as bad..but lately I've been thinking really hard about it......

Purplegirl1008 · #21 07-25-2012, 08:48 AM

Tattoos aren't really that bad. I have 11 and some hurt worse than others. He's already got his kids' initials and names on him. Like I said I honestly expected him to say hell no that he would never get my name so I kind of brought it up jokingly. I suggested on his neck but he said no way. I already have his name printed out how I want it, and will probably get it on my wrist. But it all depends on how things go when he gets out.
