The second is Samantha, whose tattoo is done in "James Potter's (prongs) handwriting":

Finally, Chloe, who explains:

Under regular light, it looks like a blank scroll (almost) with the three stars that appear on every page in each book. But under a black light, the quote lights up: "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good." (I couldn't get the best picture of it or angle with my scorpion finder light, but you get the idea.)

"Messrs. Mooney, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs
Purveyors of Aids to Magical Mischief-Makers
are proud to present
THE MARAUDER'S MAP"

  1. Wow, the first two are cool, but that last tattoo… absolutely amazing. I love it to pieces.
