I need an upper Arm Tatoo that has the following?

I am trying to come up with ideas for a tatoo for my upper arm that acomidates my

Mom: Linda
Grandma: Rose or Rosemary Domino
Grandpa: Jeff Domino
and possibly a cross

can anyone help give me ideas on how I could put those all in one tatoo. Thanks

Hey, these names are brilliant for tattoos! Rose, Rosemary and Domino can all be represented by symbols rather than words, which should make the tattoo much easier to design.

Because of the symmetrical shape of the cross, I'd probably put that at the center, with either a wreath of roses - or, perhaps more imaginatively, a wreath of rosemary - around it. These would represent your grandma. Then I'd have the base of the cross resting on a heap of dominos. These would represent your grandpa.

Now, the name Linda, according to the link below, is derived from the German linde - a lime tree. So I think it would be really great to incorporate that, too. I think I would depict a lime tree growing behind the cross, with its leaves curling down around the sides, bringing the whole design together.

Alternatively, I might substitute the lime tree at the center in place of the cross, and instead incorporate the cross as a smaller symbol, perhaps sitting in the canopy of the lime tree. The lime tree could be growing on a bank of rosemary with dominos scattered around.

If you want to incorporate the actual names of your family members, you could always think about putting them into the trunk or roots or leaves of the tree.

Good luck and I hope this has given you some ideas!
