On Wednesday, the 43-year-old actor took to Instagram to show off his intricate forearm inking in tribute to his nine-year-old son Flynn, who he shares with ex-wife Miranda Kerr.

Fans of Orlando Bloom have pointed out that his new Morse code tattoo misspells his son's nameCredit: Instagram

The black body art not only includes his son's name but also features his date of birth date, 1 June 2011, 09.03am.

Proud of his new inking, the Carnival Row star can be seen beaming in the selfie, which he captioned: "new #tattoo can you guess who? (sic)".

Although many were quick to praise the star's body art, several Instagram followers pointed out that there was an error in his heartwarming gesture.

According to some eagle-eyed fans, the tattoo features a minuscule misspelling, as the Morse code design is missing a dot for Flynn’s name and instead reads 'Frynn'.

One follower commented: "Babe you spelled it wrong".

"Sir I’m sorry that tattoo most definitely says 'Frynn'," another wrote.

After the error was brought to light, Bloom's tattoo artist Balazs Bercsenyi admitted there was a dot missing from the art.

The tattooist posted his own snap of the ink and penned: "A beautiful reminder for @orlandobloom of his son and yes, a dot is missing, we know, it will be fixed :)" (sic).
