She has decided to give it up. No tattoo in Chinese. Whew.

Funnily enough I won a £30 voucher for a tattoo a month or two ago

I gave it to a woman at work, who already had a tattoo on one thigh, and wanted one on the other.

Good for you Nigel. Thing is it probably was not a Chinese interpretation thing... Never again...ever.
Almost lost her because of it

Did you check the reverse translation back to English? Google gave "blue wildebeest," which is not quite the same.

Proper nouns cannot be translated. I did test a few others (like Coca Cola) and did get a Chinese equivalent, which appeared to be just a letter by letter translation to the Chinese characters. The Chinese equivalent translated into every language using our alphabet as "coca cola." Since it is the Christmas season, try translating Christmas to Chinese, then back translate to German, Spanish, English. I got gibberish with Google.
