For most of us, getting our spouse’s named inked sounds like a pretty painful proposition. And going by how many celebrities have had splits and divorces forcing them to rejig the whole proclamation of love in ink and blood and needing ‘cover up’ tats, this may not sound like a great idea. But, if you are among the hopeless romantics planning a tat as a tribute to your love, check out these five quirky designs that are far more impressive than just those tattoos of names in cursive fonts:
An ode to the owner of your heart
If you are hell-bent on getting the name of your spouse, then make it a bit interesting and let the stroke of the fonts start with a heartbeat vector and then move on to spell your spouse’s name.

Unlock the love

Love is infinite
Another one for the suckers for symbologies, go for the symbol of infinity drawn with a heart in the middle. Each wing of the infinity symbol can be used to spell out your names or your initials depending on how big your tats are.
