Name badge

Name badge Emoji

Symbols

A red-bordered white badge shaped like a flame or a petal, usually containing a blank space for writing a name. It resembles the plastic identification tags frequently pinned to shirts at schools or corporate events.

Usage Context

This emoji is frequently used to introduce oneself, tag a person in a post, or signify an official entry. Because of its flame-like top, it is sometimes mistaken for a fire-related icon, but it is primarily used for labels and identification. It pairs well with other communication icons like 📇 or 👤.

History

Originating from the practice of Japanese kindergarteners wearing 'nafuda'—name tags often designed in the shape of a flame or flower—this emoji was added to Unicode in 2010. It reflects a standard piece of Japanese school equipment designed to help teachers and peers identify students.
