History

While the base fairy emoji was added to Unicode 10.0 in 2017, the ability to modify gender and skin tone was introduced shortly after to align with the expansion of diverse human representations across mobile platforms. The character draws from centuries of European folklore, where fairies served as popular archetypes in literature and oral tradition.
