Both Dominic and Billy have a tattoo of the Elvish word "nine" written with the Tengwar script, a reference to his involvement in the Lord of the Rings and the fact that their character was one of the nine members of the Fellowship of the Ring. Six of the other actors of "The Fellowship" (Elijah Wood, Sean Astin, Sean Bean, Ian McKellen, Viggo Mortensen and Orlando Bloom) got the same tattoo.
