👧

Girl Emoji 👧

A simple face with straight, parted hair and small pigtails, the stock illustration of a young girl. It's used literally, for a daughter, a granddaughter, or any female child in the conversation, without much metaphorical stretch beyond that.

What 👧 means

Same idea as the boy emoji, but the pigtails do the identifying work — this is the face for 'daughter,' 'niece,' whoever the girl in the story happens to be.

The 👧 Girl emoji best suits contexts that say 'girl' (literally. We don't do metaphors with genders), like a baby shower, a birthday, etc. It is available in the designated skin tones almost across all platforms.

How and when to use it

If you or someone you know is expecting a baby girl, then you could use 👧 in your virtual invites, or even sharing or posting something on social media.
If you're sharing pictures of your baby girl (your child. Girlfriends and wives don't count, they're women) either on DMs or on your social media stories, you could tag along the 👧 emoji.
You could also use 👧 to respond to girl empowerment posts or messages that you may come across on social media.
If you had a vacation with your daughter, niece, or any young girl that you love very much and you're sharing those pictures on social media, you can use 👧.
If you're trying to draft a script that involves emojis and there's a girl in it, you could use 👧..
Kindly refrain from making cringy applications of the 👧 emoji.

How it looks across platforms

Seeing a blank box instead of the emoji somewhere? Here's why that happens. Curious why the designs above don't match to begin with? Here's why that happens too.
