This is just for personal use as a tattoo, so im not worried about if its not 'exact' but as close to the name as possible. its not so i can tell people my chinese name and call myself that. Thanks for the effort

There's no such thing as confirmation, because Judy is NOT a Chinese name to begin with. Chinese just uses an approximate range of characters with the same sound or almost the same sound for the name as a whole, so it could be written any way you want.

朱迪 or 朱蒂 are both acceptable if you speak Mandarin. Other characters might be used if you use a different dialect, where the pronunciation of "Judy" sound different to the speaker speaking a different dialect from Mandarin.
參考: I'm Chinese.

You can't really translate names. All you can do is approximate the pronunciation, but then the Chinese is usually nonsense and would not be recognized as names by Chinese speakers.

Zhu is a family name pronounced like Ju in your name. but di, pronounced like dy in your name would not be used in names. It sounds ridiculous in Chinese.

This is why many long term ex-pats in Chinese take on real Chinese names rather than attempting ot 'translate' their English names.

Usually names are not translated, but you could say:
Chu Li

The meaning of the name Judy is ´From Judea´ if you translate this in Chinese it´s 从朱迪亚
