Unless it is your children, names are always a bad idea.
Also things like "Spring Break 1998!!!!" make for terrible tattoos as well.
I myself am not a tattoo person, but I won't stand in the way of someone that wants one.
Legally speaking, where I live, a person must be 100% sober when getting a tattoo but that is hardly the case. They (unethically) make most of their revenue off of drunk people.
