Me and my girlfriend are getting married in a couple of months and she has a Japanese(?) tattoo that we don't know the meaning of. If it translates to something not too weird she'll sharpen the edges (its a couple of years old) and if not, she'll probably cover it with something. I'm grasping at straws here, but I was hoping that one of you fine people might be able to tell us what it means. Thanks! Attachments sign.webp 20 KB · Views: 166

They lied. There is no kanji that reads "Marianne". Why would there be one? My wife just had a look at it and pointed out that it looks like 尿 (p!ss), but with an extra stroke.

She was young and reckless, I guess, and there might have been some kind of alcohol involved... Thanks for the quick reply guys. If any other other kanji comes to mind, that might like something like the tattoo, please let me know
