These are the kinds of errors our tools catch before it's too late.
A foreigner got 鸡汤 (jī tāng) tattooed thinking it means "soul-nourishing wisdom." In Chinese internet slang, it means "cheesy motivational fluff."
→ Tattoo Checker would flag this as slang riskMeant as a romantic tattoo for a partner, but the translation uses 你们 (plural "you") — it reads as "forever love all of you." Accidentally polyamorous.
→ Tattoo Checker catches singular vs. plural errorsA beauty brand chose 方死 for its "edgy" look. The meaning? "Just died." Not the premium beauty vibe they were going for.
→ Brand Name Checker prevents meaning disastersSomeone chose 史 (shǐ, "history") as a surname because it looked simple. It's also a homophone for 屎 ("poop"). Every introduction becomes a joke.
→ Name Generator flags homophone risksYes. The free check gives you instant results — meaning, pinyin, risk score and basic cultural notes. The paid reports are optional and include deeper analysis, calligraphy assets, pronunciation audio and expert review.
