A MOTHER has changed her two-year-old son’s name after a tattoo artist misspelled the moniker while inking her.

Johanna Giselhäll Sandström, from Kyrkhult, Sweden, ended up with a tattoo with read Kelvin instead of her little boy’s name Kevin.

But after looking into expensive and painful removal options such as laser surgery, the 30-year-old decided to rename her toddler.

Johanna told news outlet Blekinge Läns Tidning that she handed the artist designs featuring the names of her two kids Nova and Kevin.

She said: “I said I wanted the names of my children tattooed on me and I gave the artist their names.

“The artist drew the design and didn’t ask anything about the spelling so I didn’t give it any more thought.”

According to Johanna, the tattoo artist laughed at his mistake and offered her a refund insisting he could not undo his work.

The mum-of-three and her husband decided to “rename the boy” after investigating the removal options.

Johanna now says she prefers the unique name Kelvin because “no one else” has it.

However, the 30-year-old did add that she will be more careful if she ever gets the name of her recently born daughter – named Freja – inked on her body.

She said: “I’m going to write it down on a piece of paper and check it over ten thousand times.”
