Hi everyone! I'm looking for some help translating the Gaelic spelling of my family name into Ogham script for a tattoo. Name is Ó Lorcáin (Larkin). Thanks!

Here is Ó Lorcáin transcribed in ogam.

It might be of interest to note that there is a keyboard layout available in Windows for ogam. One installed you can switch between keyboard mappings by pressing the Windows key on your keyboard and the space bar.

Left to right. Usually the 'stem' (the thing that looks like a greater than symbol) marks the start and direction.
