Choose a random quote from either a film, novel or even personal advice a family member or loved one may have given you in the past. The more obscure the passage, the more random it will seem, yet its meaning will be well known to you and those close to you. There are hundreds of fonts and styles to choose from when considering a script tattoo, just bear in mind, the more elaborate the script the larger the tattoo will need to be.
Many images, such as license plates and bar codes, afford artists the opportunity to insert significant letters and numbers into a seemingly random string of alphanumeric code. Initials and important dates, such as a birth date or anniversary, make ideal inserts for these codes, but ultimately it is entirely up to you. These tattoos can be relatively small, but you should make sure the letters and numbers are at least large enough to be legible.
Print tattoos can be either a foot print or hand print of a child or loved one. These make good memorial tattoos and are relatively simple in that they typically only involve the use of one color. You can locate childhood prints of a loved one a birth certificate or just a present-day print. Remember, there is no rule saying a print tattoo has to be a human print. Pets make just as noticeable a print as anyone.
Most names have a meaning based in the origins of their ancestral past. For instance, the name Nick is derived from "Nike," which is Greek for "victory." Determine the origins of your name or the name of a loved one and tattoo either a script translation or an image to the same effect. This tattoo will absolutely appear random but if you want to take it a step further, consider tattooing the meaning of your name in the native language from which it is derived, such as "Ν?κη," instead of "victory."
