Merperson Emoji 🧜

What 🧜 means

A gender-neutral version of the famous mythical character of the mermaid. Half-human and half fish, this character is designed with short hair and a trident, which is not always present on all platforms.

The 🧜 Merperson emoji signifies mythology, fairytale, love for the waters, and a sense of being an 'aqua person'. Although mostly shown with feminine features, this emoji is gender-inclusive and not biased.

This emoji is available in the designated skin tones on almost all platforms.

How and when to use it

If you created an aqua make up look or got your hair dyed in aqua blue, and you're posting these artistic pictures on your social media, use 🧜 in the captions.
If you're sharing a music video or an educative video that's themed on merpersons and water in general, you can use 🧜 in the caption.
If you're an ocean person and the beach is where your heart is, then shy not. Use 🧜 in your social media profile name.
If you have a chic jewelry store and you're sharing pictures of aqua-themed jewelry on social media, you can use 🧜 in the caption.
On a much personal level, you can use 🧜 while telling your buddies, posting stories on social media or tweeting that you're hitting the beach. Like, "FINALLY heading home!! 🧜"
If you're posting a picture of yourself dressed in all cool, blue shades from your beach vacay, use 🧜 in the picture caption. Along with other emojis that would suit the mood.
