Can I use 凛 as a tattoo?

Each character in 凛 has a positive meaning, so it is a reasonable choice. Keep in mind that Japanese people will read it as the meaning of the characters, not instantly as “Lynne”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (リン) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
