I am not to sure about the website thing but if you go in to a tattoo place and tell them what you want they can scetch it for you. It would be kool, i think. Make sure it wont effect you in your future. If you get a job or something you cant be showing your tattoo, unprofessional!

When i was 17 i wanted my name on my arm in graffiti writting. I was sure that as soon as i turned 18 i'd get it done. Luckly i didn't get it done, I was given some really good advice. I was told to get my design drawn up, put it somewhere that i'd see it everyday. After a year or so if i still wake up everyday looked at the design and still wanted it then it's the right tattoo for me.
I looked at my drawn up design everyday and for the first 6months l LOVED it and was 110% sure it was still what i wanted, a few months later i began to question how much i liked the tattoo and then a year later i HATED the tattoo. As you get older your taste changes and i'm so glad i never got it on my skin.
I wouldn't have my own name tattooed on my skins it's a little dorky (sorry). Have you got a nickname? Wait a few years and like me and so many other people you'll probably find you want a totally different tattoo .
Good Luck

That would be cute since its very unique and you don't see it often. But I kinda agree that you might should think about getting it on a flat surface because that way you will definately see it & also if your job is professional you might not want it on your arm where everyone can see it all the time. I think the lower back would actually be perfect for a name tatoo! But if you want it on your arm...get what you think is best!
I found a few websites, I hope these help you! Good Luck!

On one hand your name will never change so it's something you will love forever, on the other hand graffitti is sometimes hard to read depending on the artist so you need to make sure you tell them exactlly how you want it to look when you go in. Make sure it's legible.

I think if it's what you want then go for it!!
Just make sure it's what you want...
Think about it for a while, don't get it out of a whim...
If you want to know what it would look like, try to find someone who can draw well, get them to draw it on your arm in colored sharpies...
(that's how I decided how exactly I wanted 2 of my tats...I works well, it'll be there for a few days so you can look at it for a while..and if you don't like it, you can scrub it off and try again..)
Once you figure out what you like then go for it!!!
Tattoo's are for you and YOU ONLY!! Don't listen to people saying that's ugle or unlady like....it's all up to you...Just make sure it's what you want first...
you CAN get a tat removed, it's just very expensive, and a lot more painful then the tat ever was in the first place...

You can find a lot more sites if you search for graffiti generators on google(or any other search engine)
Hope this helps!!! GOOD LUCK!!!!

The only sexy tattoo on a chick is in the small of her back !! That just drives me crazy ;-) But remember that they are not so easily removed down the road when you are older. Think hard about it and make sure it is something and somewhere you can live for a long time !

I would not get it on your arm. Think about how it will look in a wedding dress or any kind of dress. I would get it on your lower back. I just put my name on my lower back and it looks really pretty. But I did it in script writing. If you want me to email you a pick Just ask. :) Well good Luck!

It sounds neat to me, but I would certainly do research on what it might look like. I'd say to keep the tattoo as an armband. Just remember that once you get it, removing it will not be easy, so you better like it.

to put your own name on you is not a very creative idea in my opinion. also grafiti in general is more difficult to read. but if that is what you want then go for it. just go to a shop and you should be able to get an artist to draw up something that will work for you. there are so many different styles of grafiti you may need to find a style you like first and bring that in.

I think it would look aweful on your arm, especially going around it. If you do it, make sure you go to someone who has a background in graffit art.
