Is there a specific meaning to the roman numeral tattoo’s? Other than just birth dates..?

I know that people get the tattoo’s of their birthday in roman numerals..but I have also seen it when people just get one number. like a 4. Just IV. Does it have a specific meaning or just whatever you want it to mean?! Thanks!

Some are important dates like a child’s birthday or marriage date. Maybe even their highschool jersey number, or birth order…who knows, just whatever matters to them I suppose.

Some, however, are gang related – like 187 in roman numerals – is the California Penal Code for homicide. Or the number 13 (XIII), represents the fact that the member is a Sureno.

Its all relative to the individual.
