Choosing to get a name tattoo is a big deal depending on whose name is being placed on the body. Most people choose to get their own name tattooed somewhere on their body, whether it be on the neck, shoulder, arm or leg. While it is advised to be careful when getting a name tattoo of a significant other, a lot of people still choose to do so. Many parents choose to embellish their bodies with a tattoo of their children\u2019s names. Some have even gone to the extent to show their loyalty to companies or bands by placing those names on their bodies.<\/p>\n

Regardless of whose name is tattooed, it can be paired with almost any design that represents the person individually. Many fonts ranging from plain to script to graffiti can be used to decorate the name in a meaningful way. Listed below are some neat name ideas.<\/p>\n
