Kelsey Grammer Gets Wife's Name Tattooed on Hip: How Do You Feel About Significant Other Tattoos?

Fourth time's the charm? It had better be, because Kelsey Grammer just got his fourth wife's name tattooed on his hip. The 57-year-old "Frasier" star dropped by Insight Studios in Chicago on Saturday to make "Kayte" his very first tattoo. Maybe some permanent ink will make his marriage to Kayte Walsh a little more permanent than his first three.

Bob Jones, owner of the tattoo parlor, told The Sun Times, "He was pretty cool about it. He said it was his first tattoo and he did some research and said, 'You guys seemed to be the best place to go.'" Jones also recalled that the 21-year-old receptionist had no idea who he was, and Kelsey Grammer "looked at her funny" when she asked. Because you'd have to be crazy not to watch "Frasier," right? So, we're curious. What do you think about getting a tattoo of your significant other's name?

    I would have absolutely no problem getting my husband's name (or at least his initials) tattooed on me :) I have my daughter's name and birth date (along with a sea turtle) and am working on one for my son too.

    Its a terrible idea to get a tattoo of your spouse/partner because let say,you in a bad relationship and things don't workout. As a reminder of your spouse,you have the tattoo of your mate that will last a lifetime. YOU CAN'T REGRET NOW BECAUSE THE DAMAGE IS ALREADY DONE :(

    I think they're stupid, particularly after the divorce. Imagine what Grammer would look like if he had done that for the first three wives. Hah! But it's his body, so my opinion doesn't count for much here.

    I personally wouldn't do it, because that's on you FOREVER, but if you stay together it can work.

    Getting someones name as a tattoo is not goos what-so-ever. I know I have three at ther moment but I would never get my bf's name as a tattoo without asking him how he felt on the matter

    if the relationship is real than maybe. like just dating- they may break up. if married-they may get a divorce. but they can always be covered up! (of not too big)

    It seems like every time a couple gets each other's name tattooed on them, the relationship is doomed and ends soon after. The only name I have tattooed on me is my son's. No matter what, he'll always be my son. I thought about getting my husband's name tatted on me, because no matter what might happen between us, he will always be the father of my son, but I'm still kind of on the fence about it. But all in all, I think it's a pretty bad idea.

    If you have to graffiti & vandalise yourself with someone other than a blood relative's name then I would, in many cases, question the strength of that relationship. I think they're trying too hard to prove their commitment to their significant other, by marking or labelling themselves as perhaps as a piece of property, forever in the ownership of someone else.

    Of course it can feel like you'll be together & in love & rapture with your other forever & ever at the time, & naturally wearing their name is very loving & romantic & the least thing you could do. But people change, or reveal incompatible characteristics of themselves that weren't known to the other earlier on in their romance etc...

    As has been said, if you no longer like the person who's name you wear, you look pretty silly to others.

    More specifically I don't agree with tatts of any kind, as they are a PERMANENT label or sign to carry around on yourself, to express a TEMPORARY feeling you had at the time.

    Other people get tatts to try to prove their tough etc. That's the worst reason to get one. An act of desperation. Insecurity. Conformism.

    Nope. I've just talked myself into it. Save your money. All tatts are bloody silly. Even blood relative names, although less ridiculous, are probably an unnecessary burden. An indication of insecurity in many cases.

    It's like someone walks up to you after they see your tattoo and say, "So Kalie's your girlfriend?" And it's like "No she's me ex." They start laughing "Now it's a reminder that you had a failed relationship after you found out she slept with your brother." You say "What?!" Other person..."Aw sh**."

    Fourth wife? Obviously, he isn't exactly great with relationships..... He'll likely regret it.

    I don't like tattoos, but having names tattooed is just a bad idea.

    They do work if you know for a fact that you are staying with that person. No relationship is too volatile and if you think of your relationships as that then you do not know whether you want to be with any one person for any length of time therefore would not be getting a tattoo anyway.

    Dumb move considering his track record! I've never thought tatooing a person's name was particularly flattering to either the tatooed or the person they presumably are honoring in doing so. Just stupid in my opinion.
