There are, of course, some tattoo fonts that are more popular than others. Fiery fonts and icy fonts are among the most popular. Those who want to look cool or spice things up often use tattoo fonts like that. Old English is another popular font for tattooing. Any tattoo fonts can be used, but usually people choose these fonts because they are eye-catching.

What are tattoo fonts used for? Well, primarily they are used to tattoo a person's name or initials. They're popular among people who are dating. Sometimes tattoo fonts are used to tattoo the name of a loved one who has died or the name of someone's pet or child. The possibilities are endless, but those are the more popular uses for tattoo fonts.

Kanji Japanese calligraphy is another of the tattoo fonts you may want to consider using. Originally Kanji was used to write on bones in a formal way. The rounded, natural calligraphy is often used, these days, by Japanese people to achieve an old-fashioned appeal. These days, Kanji has evolved a bit. It's split off into two different styles. One is SOSHO Kanji and one is MINCHO Kanji.

MINCHO Kanji is the equivalent of Times New Roman in English letters to the Japanese. It's the font found commonly in newspapers in Japan. MINCHO style is a bit formal and is starting to be used everywhere, even on billboards in Japan.

SOSHO Kanji is more of a modern, cursive twist on the Kanji style. It's usually brushed, which creates smooth, flowing lines. The movie âThe Last Samuraiâ used SOSHO Kanji lettering. It's also common to see SOSHO Kanji lettering in places that teach martial arts.

If you want the perfect tattoo, consider not just the meaning of the picture you choose, but also the origins and meanings behind the tattoo fonts. Take the time to research and you'll be sure to make a good selection. That way you can use tattoo fonts that really make people take notice of your tattoo in a positive way.
