Most foreigners meanwhile, will never have 鸡 on their skin for the very good reason it means 'chicken', never mind any other meaning. What's it meant to mean?

Zhen Nin (probably transliteration of a western name)

Da De Li (probably transliteration of another western name)

chicken

maybe it's the animal of the chinese lunar year this guy was born.

you know, the 12 animals, chinese Sheng Xiao 生肖.

So what you are saying is that it has no actual meaning in Chinese whatsoever?

Moreso some form of western name translation? What are the exact words that make up the western translation?

or maybe the two are a couple and "ji1" sounds like their last name?

This sounds like a prompt for a creative writing assignment. Explain why this woman has a tattoo that reads

Janine

Dudley

Chicken.

Look, why don't you just tell us what it's meant to say, and then we can try and figure out why on earth you've got the word 'Chicken' on your arm . . .

And if it doesn't mean what it was supposed to mean, maybe someone could figure out a way to fix it. For example by adding a 田, you could turn the chicken into a frog (田雞). Well, maybe not, but I'm sure other people would have better ideas.
