The kind of discussions you write are better to be held between Xini, Francky or me. They are a bit to academical for the one who do not know Latin.
'Fore' would have been my choose but as 'esse' is so commonly used in every-tattoo-translation, I would go for esse.
I will though remove your comment not your translation..

Do you want to be my godmother?

For the context, I think the requester wants someone to be her "godmother" in her marriage - I don't know the exact word in Englisn. CC: charisgre Porfyhr |

| | What probably induced both Porfyhr and charisgre in error is that "Madrinha" is typed with a cap "M" at its beginning, this should be edited in the original version, just tell me if you're 100%sure it is about a godmother and I'll edit the original version... |

In Brazil, the fiancée invites her best female friends to become her "madrinhas" in her wedding. The "madrinhas" help the fiancée with many things related the wedding ceremony, such as the dress, makeup, etc., and mainly, they give the most expensive gifts - refrigerator, oven, sofa, bed and closet, TV - for her to begin her new life with her husband...

| | Francky, the comma before the last noun was the reason I've translated like that. Normaly, you put a comma before a Vocative name... |

| | There is a word in Latin for this : "sponsor-oris" and designates a sponsor for a neofit. |
