Jonas has a rope tattoo on his right arm that he got in 2012. When revealing the tattoo in an earlier photo, he mentioned in the caption that the rope is a symbolic tribute to his family. "Two ropes (two parents) makes four ends (four brothers)," he wrote.
The singer showed off a tattoo of a triangle with a hand reaching through it in early 2016. He has not shared what the design means, but triangles are said to symbolize wisdom and a deep connection to oneself.
Back in October, Los Angeles tattoo artist NAL shared an Instagram photo of the tattoo that he recently gave Jonas. The design features an eye — one that looks a lot like Sophie Turner's — looking through a keyhole.
In 2019, Jonas got the opening lyrics to the Electric Light Orchestra's "Mr. Blue Sky" tattooed in a spiral design on his arm. As noted in his Instagram caption, the tattoo was designed by Daniel Winter.

In 2016, the singer and brother Nick Jonas got matching tattoos. They both got tattoos of arrows that pointed to each other on opposite arms. The bandmates shared images of their tattoos on Snapchat shortly after they were finished but didn't mention the exact meaning behind it.
According to TatRing, arrow tattoos can have multiple meanings, depending on how they're designed. Some people get them to symbolize taking their lives in a different direction, while others may get them as a way to protect themselves from harm.
In 2018, Jonas went to Toronto-based artist Curt Montgomery to get a minimalist design of a woman sitting down and looking over her shoulder. He never shared the meaning behind it, though fans seem to think it's a reference to Turner's Game of Thrones character, Sansa Stark.
Judging by a photo shared by tattoo artist Mr. K, Jonas got multiple tattoos in one session back in 2018: a dove merged into a woman's face on his forearm, another dove just below it, the number 15 on his finger, and an axe on his wrist. Some fans think that the "15" is a callback to the day he proposed to Turner — Oct. 15, 2017.
In a post dating all the way back to 2012, Jonas showed off a tattoo of an adinkra symbol. He noted in the caption that the African symbol translates to the phrase, "Help me help you."
According to People, Jonas revealed via Instagram Stories three new circular tattoos of a woman's face on his left forearm earlier this year. The tattoos are supposedly a reference to the proverb, "See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil."
