Now that is dedication.
I do need to tell you a darkly funny but true story of a fellow around here a few years ago who did something like that, only checked with me about the Kanji after the fact (which the ink artist misread) ... hard to fix ... I forget what it actually said ...
... I decided just to leave it be.
Maybe you can mail me a photo when done.
Yes, I know you are a math teacher and like numbers! That is correct. You have the feeling behind the name just right.

All I inked was a broken pine needle, I placed it on the back of my neck in case I ever find myself without a rakusu.

But those Kanji say, "Peanut Airplane"!
(just kidding)
I also showed it to Mina and a Japanese relative, and they gave it the thumbs up and a Gassho. Not kidding this time.

Thank you Jundo. You got me a bit scared with your previous story. It was totally based on the Calligraphy you sent which was found on the envelope. So, I thank you for that. We ended up talking about Buddha's life and the 4 noble truths while he tattooed me. Now, the artist wants to improvise a Buddha on me.
Gassho,
Sat today,
Suuko.
