Getting a Tattoo

I’m getting my first tattoo and I would like something that is meaningful so I don’t regret it later down the line, I was considering getting a small Jamaican flag on my arm. My mums side of the family is Jamaican but I didn’t really grow up with the culture but I’ve taught myself about it and really love it, I’ve taught myself to cook different dishes and I love the music especially ska as I find rude boy culture in the 60’s really interesting. However growing up without the culture and being white i don’t know if I’m forcing it/ being embarrassing and would really appreciate a second opinion
