How it works

These whimsical symbols are a storybook set: the unicorn, the toadstool, the snail and the fox, a tea party, wands and castles, and text symbols such as โธ™ for a plain line. Tap any tile to copy it.

Read the full guide

Emoji first, then plain text

The first three groups are emoji: Storybook creatures, Tea, sweets and toys and Wands, castles and keys. Whimsical text symbols are not emoji, so they keep the colour of your words: โธ™ is a palm branch from the punctuation marks, โ‚ an old printer's mark of three stars.

Names and dividers

Name wrappers set the word name between toadstools, branches or a unicorn and a rainbow: paste, then type yours over it. Dividers run toadstools and snails, or a tea party, across a line.

Tips
  • แฏ“ is a letter of the Batak script and โธ™ a Unicode 5.1 mark, so an older device may show a box for either.
  • The fairy and the mage take skin tones; pick one on the tone row before you copy.

Questions and answers

Is there a whimsical emoji?

No emoji is named whimsical, and CLDR, the list of emoji search words, files none under it. The set here is our own choice: the unicorn, the toadstool, the snail, a tea party, a wand and a castle.

What are magical symbols to copy and paste?

CLDR files six emoji under magic: ๐Ÿง™ Mage, ๐Ÿง Elf, โœจ Sparkles, ๐Ÿ”ฎ Crystal ball, ๐Ÿช„ Magic wand and ๐ŸŽฉ Top hat. The wand, the mage and the sparkles are here; the crystal ball is on the witch symbols page.

Do these symbols have meanings?

Not ones this page claims. They are picked for the storybook look, and each tile names the character it is, from Unicode's own list, so you know what you are pasting.

How this list was compiled: Built by script on 2026-09-24, not typed by hand. Every character was checked against UnicodeData.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/UnicodeData.txt): the code points and the character names in the notes come from that file, names in sentence case. Block names come from Blocks.txt (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/Blocks.txt) and the Unicode version each character arrived in from DerivedAge.txt (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/DerivedAge.txt), both version 18.0.0. 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. Emoji 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). No emoji name or search word there contains whimsical; CLDR lists magic for six (mage, elf, sparkles, crystal ball, magic wand and top hat, not counting the man and woman forms), and the build stops if that list changes. Which characters have an emoji form, and the text-style sequences that keep them plain, come from emoji-data.txt (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/emoji/emoji-data.txt) and emoji-variation-sequences.txt (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/emoji/emoji-variation-sequences.txt), version 18.0.0. Which characters make a whimsical set, and every wrapper, divider and combo, are this site's own choice and assembly; the tile names are our own. No meaning is claimed for any symbol.
