Use these for fun, not for anything that matters. Screen readers read many of these characters badly or skip them, search cannot find them, and some apps strip them or show empty boxes.

How these styles work: none of them is a font. Each one swaps your letters for other characters that Unicode already has, or adds combining marks to them, so the result is plain text that can be pasted anywhere. The maps were built from the Unicode code charts, and a character that has no look-alike is left as it is.

How it works

This stylish text tool frames a name: type yours and copy it between two wings, inside East Asian brackets or between rising bars. Some apps strip or block these characters, and screen readers may read them badly.

Four frames for one name

The large card shows Wrapped: wings, ꧁ Beatrice ꧂ for the sample, until you type your own name. Below it the same name sits in Wrapped: brackets, Wrapped: corners and Wrapped: rising bars. The letters stay plain keyboard letters in all four.

What the frames are made of

The wings are Javanese left rerenggan and Javanese right rerenggan, U+A9C1 and U+A9C2. 【】 are black lenticular brackets and 『』 white corner brackets, both from the block CJK Symbols and Punctuation. The bars are five Block Elements, from Lower one eighth block up to Full block and back down.

A device with no Javanese font shows the two wings as empty boxes, and the brackets need a Chinese or Japanese font.
Frames add length: Beatrice is 8 characters, 10 in brackets, 12 in wings or corners and 28 between the bars.
Wikipedia's article on the Javanese script says rerenggan are often purely decorative and frame titles or sections of text.

Questions and answers

Is this a text decorator or a font?

A decorator. No font is involved: each frame is a few Unicode characters placed before and after your name, so the decorative text is still text and pastes like any other line.

What is the wings font called?

There is none. ꧁ and ꧂ are punctuation marks of the Javanese script, left and right rerenggan, in Unicode since version 5.2. They travel as characters, and the reader's device needs a Javanese font to draw them.

Is this a symbol name generator?

For the frame, yes: it sets the name you type between symbols. It makes up no names, so for an aesthetic nickname you bring the name and the page adds the frame.

Can I copy and paste names with the frame included?

Yes. The frame and the name are one line of text, so one copy takes both. To reuse a frame as a name template, paste it and type a new name between its two halves.
