Would you be flattered if your SO got your name tattooed on their body?

I would be flattered
My boyfriend would not. He claims it's the kiss of death in relationships.

    I agree with your boyfriend. In fact I had this conversation with my SO last night lol, we both agreed it's a death sentence.

    I would have to say no KK!

    NEVER EVER get someones name tatted on you.....I wouldn't go along with the kiss of death for the relationship....but you can just never know what the future will hold for you, and I feel that tattoos are a personal thing, within oneself, they will be with me forever, while my SO may not be......

    I don't think that I would be comfortable having my name on someone else's body. Personally, I don't think that I'd ever get a SO's name but I would definitely get something that reminds me of them or signifies our relationship. I have the title of a song by the HorrorPops on my shoulder. I didn't necessarily get it for my boyfriend but I got it to remind me of everything that I've learned from our relationship.

    No. I'd be a bit concerned... can they not remember my name without having it permanently written on their body???

    I would never put a guys' name or anything to symbolize him on my body and I would be royally irked if I guy put my name on his body. I don't know if it's the kiss of death but given how many relationships and marriages fail it just seems like a waste. You're gonna be paying for a cover-up or removal if things go bad.

    Kids are about the only thing I think it's worth putting names on your body for. Maybe if you're memorializing somebody. I have things that represent my kids worked into multiple tattoos. My best friend and I have matching tattoos but never names.

    No! It is the death of relationships, but if my husband wanted a little bee tattooed on him, that'd be fine.

    My husband has stated that you only gets someone's name inked on you for a memorial.. not for someone that's still alive. However, neither one of us has a tattoo.
  • It is the kiss of death! I only have our kids names tattoo'd.. they will always be my kids!

    I also vote no for husband/wife/partner/etc.

    Kids I think are a different story.

    No way. Tattoos are permenant - relationships are not.

    Personally, for my 10th wedding anniversary (in 2 years) I will be getting our initials and wedding date tattooed on me. IMO, its something that has been big in my life (I got married at 20 and am almost 28) and if something were to happen, then it will become a battle scar. I do have my kids names tattooed on me as well, which of course is normal lol.
  • I have my wife's name tattooed on me. It's a nice tattoo. She's my wife, my girlfriend, my companion and best friend.

    We will be together until the end of time, there's no question about that.

    10 years married and I cannot for one moment imagine not being with her.

    She has no tattoos and I'm pleased about that. I'm a bit old fashioned like that.

    Love and laughter are the sustinance that give us life.

    My husband and i have matching arm bands. His goes all the way around, mine does not. There is a 'jewel' of sorts that hangs in the center. Mine has a green stone (son's birthstone) and an "S" in the center. His has a blue stone (his fav color) and an A in the center. Neither of us wanted the plunge of a whole name... This way if it doesn't work out (as if) I can be "Super woman" and he can be "@sshole" :laugh: :laugh:

    I'd only do that if both people were like 60...Lol. My fiance & I said when we get way older we may get eachothers name somewhere.

    ^ I agree 1,000% to this, but I am heavily tattooed. I think getting someone's name tattooed on you is reserved for mementos of the deceased.
  • probably not...but matching tattoos are something we both want :happy:

    I think that it is bad luck and either the relationship will end or that person will die. I really think that! I would only tattoo the name of a departed loved one on my body.

    If he wanted to I wouldn't object, but no way would I get his on me.
  • Spouses names- no
    Kids names- okay

    My ex-boyfriend tattooed my initials on his arm. He told his new girlfriend they stood for Jesus Christ. Luckily, my initials were JC so his story was totally believable. Sadly, he hadn't been to church a day in his entire life.

    A few months after getting married, my hubs got our wedding date tattooed on his back. I told him just in case, to come up with some kickass story about that date. I haven't gotten anything similar, but it was very sweet that he did that.

    Flattered, yes. But I really wouldn't want him too and there is no way I would get his on mine. I don't know about it being the kiss of death for a relationship, but I just think it's tacky.
    My husband had all 3 of our kids names tattooed on his arm not long after our youngest (and only child that is biologically both of ours) daughter was born. My oldest daughter is not his and it caused quite the stink with his ex girlfriend. ***** made me want to tattoo my name across his forehead.

    I wouldn't do it, and I wouldn't want my husband to have my name on him. When I was younger (too young, stupid, and naive) I got married to a classmate who went into the Marine Corp. He got an extremely elaborate tattoo made up of yellow roses, green leaves and thorns in the shape of a heart. In the center was my name in intricate leaf design. I have a very uncommon first name. Well, the marriage was (figuratively speaking) over before the tat ink had dried. Not a good idea, imo, to put somebody's name on your bod. Unless it's your child. Or maybe the "memorial" type tattoo.

    Speaking from experience here......DON'T do it. I made this mistake and a week after hubby moved out, I went and had it covered up. Thank goodness the tattoo was small and dainty so the cover up didn't have to be huge.......unlike the one he had to get to cover my name :laugh:
