Chinese speakers please help

子 供

My daughter got a tattoo at the weekend and she's done some research after the event (would have been more useful beforehand) and is now panicking that the Chinese characters are just nonsense

Can anyone help with an accurate translation?

She thought it was "find yourself" but is now worried its some nonsense.... Or worse!

People have already said it but it is Japanese for children
jisho.org/word/子供

It looks wrong to me as well.

The first character is 'zi' ( which usually means 'child', mainly in the combination 'haizi', but can have other meaning too)

The second character is 'gong' (which can be pronounced with two different tones, and has various potential meanings confession, offerings, supply.

I've never come across them in combination, and they're not in my dictionary as one. And I'm not a native speaker, so can't guess what might have been meant, or work it out if it's a contraction of a longer phrase

'zigong' which mean uterus (mercifully) is written differently!

Yes, DD says it means “child” in Japanese. She has done Japanese and Mandarin at uni.

In Cantonese it rhymes with vagina…..

As pp said it looks like they got the wrong 'zi', even then its a bit weird!
