Heart tattoos have been the most popular tattoo designs used as a representation of love. These are very popular among couples who want to express undying love for each other. This design is most commonly used to inscribe the name of a loved one. There are a number of variations of the heart tattoo design. For example, the sacred heart tattoo - that has a flaming heart surrounded by thorn - expresses the wearer's devotion for Jesus.
The pierced heart and rose heart tattoos represent romantic love. Bleeding heart and broken heart designs portray lost love. Heart with wings can represent loss of love or death of the lover, whereas a dagger through the heart design symbolizes betrayal in love.
