Mx Claus Emoji 🧑‍🎄

What 🧑‍🎄 means

A gender-neutral take on Santa Claus. This character is designed with an aging face, grey hair, and a Santa cap. This is mostly a facial emoji but can be shoulder-length on some platforms.

A very recent addition to the emoji fam and the Christmas emoji series, the 🧑‍🎄 Mx Claus emoji refers to any person who personifies Santa Claus, irrespective of gender and sex. It signifies the spirit of the Yuletide, Christmas goodies, belief, and even myth (because Santa is not real).

The 🧑‍🎄 emoji is yet to be supported on all platforms. It would soon be available in the designated skin tones on almost all platforms too.

How and when to use it

If you're posting Christmas photos of yourself, your home, your locality, your community, anything, you can use 🧑‍🎄 in the post caption.
🧑‍🎄 is a gender-neutral emoji, hence, its a great option if you don't fit into the societal binaries.
You can use 🧑‍🎄 in the caption for Santa memes or even while responding to such hilarious posts.
Use 🧑‍🎄 while wishing someone for Christmas or while responding to Christmas greetings.
If you make goodies and gifts for Christmas and you're posting about it on your social media handle as a post, a story, or a tweet, use 🧑‍🎄 in the caption. Ensure that you use other exciting Christmassy emojis such as 🎄 Christmas Tree, ❄️ Snowflake and ☃️ Snowman With Snow emojis.
You can also use 🧑‍🎄 in your 'Christmas Count-down' tweets or stories.

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.
