I am looking to get my wife's name tattooed on my wrist in hebrew lettering - her name is Nicole. Thanks!?

Thank you for anything you can offer

I am looking to get my wife's name tattooed on my wrist in hebrew lettering - her name is Nicole. Thanks!?
There are two ways of finding one's Hebrew name: find a name with a similar meaning or similar sound.





Nicole, according to Parenthood.com, means "people's victory". That would most likely correspond to the Hebrew name of Gvirah which means "a mighty heroine".





The most similar sounding girl's name in Hebrew would be Nechama, which means soothing or consoling.





Hopefully that helps you out some, good luck! All the best! :-)
Reply:well i would recommend if your absolutely serious, first go to some who is fluent in hebrew to double check the puncuation and spelling, but if you're jewish, and want to lead a jewish life i would rethink it since you can't be buried in a jewish cemetary if you have a tatto, but if you not jewish, hell go for it.
Reply:Look up the phonetic value of the Hebrew letters, then make them spell Nicole, that's the easiest way to do it. Find the one that makes the 'n' sound, then the short 'i' sound, and so on.





You should be able to find a chart of the phonetic values of the letters on wikipedia.
Reply:For a tattoo, I suggest you try a professional service where you can get translation and design: http://my-hebrew-tattoo.com
Reply:Boy, that would suck if you and your wife ever decided to split up.
