Imagine wanting to honor your kids with tattoos of their names and ending up with a permanent typo! Meet Johanna Giselhäll Sandström, the Swedish mom whose tattoo artist spelled ‘Kevin’ as ‘Kelvin’ on her arm.
Desperate for a fix, Johanna visited the tattoo shop again, only to receive a laugh and a refund offer. Laser removal or surgery seemed painful solutions, so she and her husband opted for the unexpected: they legally renamed their son ‘Kelvin’!
Turning lemons into lemonade, Johanna found the silver lining in this misadventure. “Kelvin” became a unique name in their Swedish town, and they embraced its distinctiveness.
With plans for another tattoo, Johanna vows to be extra cautious this time. Lesson learned: check, double-check, and triple-check before committing ink to skin! Who knows, a typo might just lead to an unexpectedly ‘cool’ new name!
