A daisy is one of the popular varieties of flower. Its name seems to mean 'days eye' because the flower opens at sunrise and closes at sunset. The name is believed to derive its meaning from the Latin word Bellis, which means beauty. In modern times, daisy has become the base of a lot of tattoo designs.

In general, a daisy tattoo design represents love, innocence and purity. The Michaelmas daisy design signifies farewell. A colored daisy designs represents beauty and the white daisy tattoo designs means 'I will think of it'.

To appreciate what daisy tattoo design represents, lets travel a little way back in time to the Renaissance period. In the Renaissance period, the flower was considered symbolic of a mystical language. Each flower had a particular meaning. The tattoos of this era reflected this belief too. The white daisy was symbolic of innocence. It was the most simple and abundant blossom to be found in every part of grass land. Because of the general use of the image of Jesus, the Virgin Mary and Madonna and Child, the daisy flower gained a religious connotation. The daisy was considered less pretentious and exotic than Lily.

Thus, daisy tattoo designs were regarded as a symbol of innocence of the Christ Child by the late 15th century. Since then, daisy tattoo designs have been associated with purity and innocence of children and of childhood. A bouquet of daisy flowers for women, especially those who are young, represent an innocent expression of love. During the 60s, however, daisy tattoo designs were regarded as a symbol of peace and prosperity.

With the passage of time and further advancement in art of tattoo designing, flower tattoo designs got different shapes and wider acceptance in society. The admiration and symbolism was further increased by the comfort with which floral designs were transformed into beautiful tattoo designs.
