Tattoo Help - What is this letter?

56 replies

Roomarmoset · 28/08/2019 07:47

Hi All

I got a tattoo yesterday, I wanted an infinity symbol with a letter in it. They drew the design for me and it was fine but when she tattooed it on the letter was quite thin and it didn't come out as she's hoped.

She was clearly anxious about it and was asking colleagues how to turn it more into the letter I wanted.

I keep looking at it and I'm not sure now so I wanted to ask opinions on what you think it is?

There's not much I can do now but when I left she said I can go back if I'm not happy or if I want her to make it look more like the letter which makes me think it looks awful.

Please help!

It looks like a combination of an A and a K which works really well with your names. I quite like it alongside the ♾

@Roomarmoset yeah thought that might have been the case! Where abouts is that tattoo on you? Personally, if I was tattooing something that small I would have used a very small liner to make the original gap more visible ☹️

Disfordarkchocolate · 28/08/2019 08:22

Once I turned the picture around I easily saw a capital A.

I thought A, as soon as I looked at it.

Dhalandchips · 28/08/2019 08:25

Funnily enough, I sometimes do an A like that if I am doing poncey writing 😊 it's nice

applerock · 28/08/2019 08:27

That's how I write a capital A when I'm writing a name especially. It looks absolutely fine to me.

IScreamForIceCreams · 28/08/2019 08:44

A

Roomarmoset · 28/08/2019 08:51

Thanks everyone 😊

@mordecaithomas it's on my wrist so clearly visible!

I immediately thought A, but as you said it didn't look like it was supposed to my second though was K.

MrsMozartMkII · 28/08/2019 09:16

I definitely saw an A.

It's lovely OP.

Belgravian · 28/08/2019 09:54

It looks like a logo for something sporty as the ‘letter’ looks like an action figure. Someone dancing or throwing something.

WalkersAreNotTheOnlyCrisps · 28/08/2019 09:55

I also went from A to K.

Chillisauceboss · 28/08/2019 09:58

On first glance I thought A, now I could also interpret it as an A and an '&' and a 'K' so could be a special little symbol representing your name and your daughters :)

InsertFunnyUsername · 28/08/2019 09:58

I like it. And saw A straight away Smile

WarmSausageTea · 28/08/2019 10:01

I think it looks like A, K and & combined. Although it seems the tattooist made a mistake, it looks good, so I’d leave it as it is.

flumpybear · 28/08/2019 10:02

I thought A too

Rockbird · 28/08/2019 10:04

I saw an A at first. Now people have said K I can see it but it was clearly an A before I read that.

Roomarmoset · 28/08/2019 10:17

Thanks everyone you've made me feel better!

LochJessMonster · 28/08/2019 10:20

Immediately thought A

WeeM · 28/08/2019 10:21

I thought A too - it’s a lovely tattoo, I like it.

DinkyDonkeyDooDoo · 28/08/2019 10:22

Immediately thought an A, then wondered about a K before even reading the other posts. It looks lovely and now I know you are K I think it's a lovely 'accident' that it looks like both. Serendipity.

ImagineRainbows · 28/08/2019 10:23

Clearly looks like an A to me

WalkersAreNotTheOnlyCrisps · 28/08/2019 10:24

It really is a 'good mistake'.

IWouldPreferNotTo · 28/08/2019 10:30

It looks very similar to the Adobe Acrobat logo.
