Blood Emoji Copy and Paste

Q: When did the blood emoji come out?

In Emoji 12.0, with Adhesive bandage and Stethoscope. Before that, the only emoji with blood in their names were the four blood type buttons, which date from Emoji 0.6.

Q: Is there a blood type emoji?

Four: A button (blood type), B, AB and O. None carries a sign. Wikipedia writes blood types as A, B, AB and O with + or − for RhD status, so the second group pairs each button with Plus or Minus to make all eight.

Find your blood type, a plaster or a vampire

Search reads names and search words. Type finds the four buttons, the eight pairs, a text line and the blood bag; positive finds five. Vampire finds eight tiles and pulse five. CLDR, Unicode's list of search words, files blood under the drop, the four buttons and three vampires, and nothing else.

Write your own blood type

Unicode has a button for A, B, AB and O and none for the sign, so the second group pairs each with Plus or Minus. In the Blood bag drawing, type over O+. The drawings are keyboard characters, 29 columns at most, and hold their shape only in monospaced text, such as a code block.

Tips

In a name field that refuses emoji, use 血, the Chinese and Japanese character for blood, or keep your type from the raised-sign line.
The drop, Adhesive bandage and Stethoscope need Emoji 12.0. The four blood type buttons go back to Emoji 0.6.

Questions and answers

What does the blood drop emoji mean?

Its Unicode name is Drop of blood. CLDR files it under bleed, blood, donation, injury, medicine and menstruation, so it serves for a cut, a blood test, giving blood or a period. It sits second on Unicode's medical shelf, between Syringe and Pill.

Is there a blood symbol in plain text?

Two characters in Unicode 18.0 have blood in their names: the emoji and ⾎, Kangxi radical blood. Unicode maps the radical to 血, which Unihan defines as blood, so 血 is the safer one to paste. Both are in the plain text group.

How this list was compiled: Built by script on 2026-09-20, not typed by hand. The emoji, their names, code points and Emoji version numbers come from emoji-test.txt, version 18.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/emoji/emoji-test.txt); names are the CLDR short names printed in that file, in sentence case. Drop of blood is U+1FA78, Emoji 12.0, in the group Objects, subgroup medical, the second of that subgroup's seven emoji (syringe, drop of blood, pill, adhesive bandage, crutch, stethoscope, x-ray). It takes no skin tones and has no text form. UnicodeData.txt 18.0.0 has two characters with BLOOD in their names, U+1FA78 and U+2F8E KANGXI RADICAL BLOOD, and gives U+2F8E a compatibility mapping to U+8840. The search words are from the CLDR English annotations (https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/annotations/en.xml and https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/annotationsDerived/en.xml, main branch). CLDR lists blood for eight emoji (three vampires, Drop of blood and the four blood type buttons); bleed, donation and menstruation for Drop of blood only; injury for Drop of blood and Face with head-bandage; vampire for the three vampires, Bat and Coffin; bite for Biting lip and Mosquito. The meanings of the five Han characters are kDefinition values of Unihan 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/Unihan.zip). From Wikipedia: blood types written A, B, AB and O with + or − for RhD status (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_type), blood moon as another name for a lunar eclipse (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_eclipse) and the blood orange as a variety of orange with crimson flesh (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_orange). The eight blood type pairs, the 5 ASCII drawings, the 4 text lines and the 25 combos are this site's own work; every emoji in a combo is named as emoji-test.txt names it. Nothing here is medical advice and no organisation is named. Vampires are shown in the default colour only, and the blood type buttons and Red heart in emoji style only. The Unicode and CLDR files were checked on 2026-09-19 and the three Wikipedia articles on 2026-09-20. Licence: own work
