Name Badge 📛
📛 (U+1F4DB) is a standard Unicode character that you can copy and paste anywhere text is accepted. This page provides a concise reference with safe tips, internal links, and practical guidance so you can use it reliably across apps and platforms.
What it is and where it’s used: Name Badge is part of the Symbols family (block: Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs). If you need styled or decorative alternatives, try our Fancy Text tool to generate compatible text that works in most modern interfaces.
History & usage: NAME BADGE depicts a digital badge emoji used to show identity or credentials in messages and interfaces. It can be used to label a user in chat threads or notes as belonging to a team, conference, or guest list. It helps indicate official identity in event apps, onboarding flows, or profile cards without extra text. It can also act as a UI cue for access levels or role status in dashboards and collaboration tools. Remember that the emoji’s look can vary across platforms and fonts, so its color or shape may differ. For accessibility, ensure surrounding text conveys the intended meaning and provide descriptive context when needed. This keeps meaning clear across devices and assistive technologies.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1F4DB in many development tools or editors. Some operating systems provide a character viewer or input palette that lets you search by name or code and insert the glyph into documents.
Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.

Compatibility & troubleshooting

Web pages: ensure your CSS font stack includes a general fallback; avoid relying on images for common symbols to preserve accessibility and copyability.
