Elf Emoji Meaning

🧑

Previously displayed with a gendered appearance, now shown as gender neutral on most platforms.

A mythical creature with pointed ears and a human-like face, originating in folklore.

While depictions of elves vary across cultures and traditions, this emoji's design is heavily influenced by the portrayal of elves popularized in modern high fantasy literature, particularly The Lord of the Rings. As such, most vendors display the creature wearing elegant robes and often wearing an ornate headpiece.

Even still, this emoji may be used to discuss Santa's helpers, especially around Christmas.

Elf was approved as part of Unicode 10.0 in 2017 and added to Emoji 5.0 in 2017.
