Copy a butterfly symbol
7 symbols + 6 combinations
🦋 is Butterfly (U+1F98B), one emoji character. ʚɞ and ƸƷ are decorative pairs of Latin letters used for their wing-like shapes. Copy the entire pair to preserve its arrangement; neither pair is a single officially named Unicode butterfly.
Tap Copy for the original text. Paste into your profile or message, then make it your own.
Butterfly emoji and paired wings
Choose a pictorial butterfly or a two-letter wing layout. The visual comparison does not give the letter pairs an official butterfly name.
Individual letter components
The actual letters in the paired layouts. These are provided for inspection and editing, not renamed as separate butterfly emoji.
Short butterfly accents
Original framed headings and sentence accents. Keep the wing pair intact, and replace sample words with a short personal label.
Butterfly Symbols: names, Unicode, and HTML codes
Match the character to its name before copying. HTML codes are for website source; paste the symbol itself into a bio or message.
| Symbol | Unicode name or sequence | Code points | HTML | Usage or appearance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 🦋 | Butterfly | U+1F98B | 🦋 | The named Butterfly emoji; species and coloring should not be inferred from every rendering. |
| ʚɞ | Two-letter butterfly layout | U+029A U+025E | ʚɞ | A decorative pair of Latin letters, not one named Unicode butterfly. |
| ƸƷ | Paired Ezh wing layout | U+01B8 U+01B7 | ƸƷ | A pair of Latin Ezh letters used for their wing-like shapes. |
| ʚ | Latin small letter closed open e | U+029A | ʚ | A Latin letter used visually as the left part of ʚɞ. |
| ɞ | Latin small letter closed reversed open e | U+025E | ɞ | A Latin letter used visually as the right part of ʚɞ. |
| Ƹ | Latin capital letter ezh reversed | U+01B8 | Ƹ | A reversed Latin Ezh letter used as a decorative wing shape. |
| Ʒ | Latin capital letter ezh | U+01B7 | Ʒ | A Latin Ezh letter; not the digit 3. |
On a small screen, scroll the table sideways to compare the codes.
One emoji or a pair of letters?
The Butterfly emoji is one code point. ʚɞ has two code points, and ƸƷ has two different ones. The letter pairs work as visual arrangements, so copying only one half changes their effect.
Use 🦋 when you want the named pictorial character. Use a paired layout for a text silhouette and check that both letters are present after pasting.
The wing shapes keep their Latin-letter identities
ʚ and ɞ are Latin letters named Closed Open E and Closed Reversed Open E. Ƹ and Ʒ are the reversed and ordinary capital Ezh letters. Ʒ is not an ordinary numeral 3.
These distinctions matter when a field normalizes text, limits accepted letters, or compares names. A decorative wing layout should not be assumed to pass a unique account-handle rule.
Keep the wings small and the words useful
Try a single 🦋 at the start of a garden note, or put a short name inside ʚ name ɞ. The words should explain the topic even if the reader does not recognize the decorative wings.
Long strings of marks can change height or spacing with the destination font. If a frame looks unbalanced, shorten it or use the plain emoji rather than adding more combining marks.
Sources and references
Unicode 18.0 supplies individual character names. Letter-wing pairs and framed examples are authored decorative arrangements by SnakeBaby, not officially encoded butterfly sequences.
How this collection is maintained
We distinguish the Butterfly emoji from Latin-letter wing layouts and show the actual component identities. We do not infer a butterfly species from artwork, rename letters, or guarantee acceptance by account-handle fields.

How to use these
- Choose the exact character or combination and tap Copy. Labels and reference codes are not part of the copied text.
- Paste into a supported text field with Ctrl+V, Command+V, or the mobile Paste command. Replace any sample words with your own.
- Preview the saved text. Font differences and narrow fields can change the appearance or cause a longer combination to wrap.
Platform notes
- A message, bio, display name, and unique account handle can have different character rules. Check the exact destination field.
- Text glyphs depend on the font; emoji artwork depends on the app or operating system. Copying preserves characters, not this page's colors or drawing.
- A missing-glyph box can indicate that the needed font is unavailable. Try a simpler character or another font where the app allows it.
