The word tattoo, or tattow in the 18th century, is a loanword from the Samoan word tatau, which means "to strike". The Oxford English Dictionary gives the etymology of tattoo as "In 18th c. tattaow, tattow. From Polynesian (Samoan, Tahitian, Tongan, and so on.) tatau. In Marquesan, tatu." Ahead of the importation of the Polynesian word, the practice of tattooing had been described in the West as painting, scarring or staining.The etymology of the physique modification term is not to be confused with the origins of the word for the military drumbeat or performance — see military tattoo.

In his narrative of the voyage, he refers to an operation called "tattaw".

Copyrighted tattoo designs that are mass-developed and sent to tattoo artists are recognized as "flash", a notable instance of industrial style.[8] Flash sheets are prominently displayed in several tattoo parlors for the goal of offering each inspiration and prepared-produced tattoo images to consumers.

The Japanese word irezumi signifies "insertion of ink" and can imply tattoos using tebori, the classic Japanese hand method, a Western-style machine or any strategy of tattooing employing insertion of ink.
