One deer for the reindeer, stag, doe and fawn

CLDR, Unicode's search word list, gives Deer two words, animal and deer, and files nothing under reindeer, stag, buck, doe or fawn. Wikipedia gives buck and doe for most kinds, stag for the male red deer and fawn for the young of small species. Deer with a snowflake is the reindeer here, and Team of eight is counted out.

Deer once meant any wild animal

Wikipedia notes that Old English dΔ“or covered any wild animal, and that Dutch dier and German Tier still mean animal. Those two languages' words for deer, hert and Hirsch, are tiles here. Deer is Emoji 3.0; Moose, 15.0, is the newest tile.

Tips
  • Search reindeer and four tiles answer: two text bucks, the snowflake combo and Team of eight.
  • Search pun for five, from Oh deer to Fawn over. Wiktionary lists dear and deer as homophones.
  • The Y on each text buck is an antler. Every character is on a plain keyboard.

Questions and answers

Is there a reindeer emoji?

No. No emoji is named reindeer and CLDR files nothing under the word, so 🦌 Deer, U+1F98C, stands in. Wikipedia notes the reindeer is the only deer whose females normally grow antlers too. The combo Reindeer, the long way adds a snowflake.

Is there a moose or elk emoji?

Yes, one for both: 🫎 Moose, U+1FACE, from Emoji 15.0. CLDR files it under moose, elk and antlers. Wikipedia gives moose as the North American name and elk as the Eurasian one for the same animal, the largest living deer.

What does the deer emoji mean?

A deer, of any kind. CLDR gives 🦌 two words, animal and deer. Wiktionary lists dear as a homophone, and has deer in the headlights for someone frozen with a dazed look. Oh deer and Deer in the headlights are both combos here.

Is there a baby deer emoji?

No. No emoji is a fawn, and CLDR files nothing under fawn or doe. The nearest single character is ιΊ›, U+9E9B, which Unihan glosses as fawn; ιΊ€ is a doe. The text drawing Buck, doe and fawn has all three on one line.

How this list was compiled: Built by script on 2026-09-19, 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. Two names in that file belong to the deer family, deer and moose, and none contains reindeer, elk, stag or antler. 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 the word deer for the deer alone, elk and antlers for the moose alone, sleigh for the sled alone, forest for three emoji, and nothing under reindeer, caribou, stag, buck, doe, fawn, antler or hoof. The search words on the characters, words, drawings and combos are this site's own; the emoji tiles carry CLDR's and no others. Every character that is not an emoji was checked against UnicodeData.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/UnicodeData.txt), and a note that names a character uses its name from that file. The meanings and readings of U+9E7F, U+9E80 and U+9E9B are from the Unihan database, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/Unihan.zip); the radical number is from https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/CJKRadicals.txt and the count of characters under it from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radical_198. None of the hieroglyph descriptions in Unikemet.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/Unikemet.txt) mentions a deer, a stag, a fawn or an antler, so the page has no hieroglyph. The rune's conventional name is from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algiz and the age of Linear B from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_B. The words for deer, the older meaning of the word, antlers, diet and range are from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deer; moose and elk from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moose; the reindeer's antlers from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reindeer; the team of eight and the year 1823 from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Claus%27s_reindeer; deer-crackers from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nara_Park; the white deer from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_stag; the jackalope from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackalope. The Dutch and German words for deer, and the readings lΓΉ and shika, are from the translation table of https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/deer. The meanings in the notes are from Wiktionary's entries deer, oh dear, deer in the headlights, doe-eyed, buck, buck up, fawn, fawn over, stag and doe (each at https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/ plus the phrase). The 5 one-line drawings and the combos are this site's own, and the combo names are our own or plain English phrases. All sources were checked on 2026-09-19. Licence: own work: the selection, the combo names, the text drawings and the notes are ours.
