🎅
What 🎅 means
: Depicted here is the face of St. Nick, known better to the world as Santa Claus, the legend who is known to bring presents and joy to kids all over the world during Christmas. Santa Claus is universally characterized by his long, white beard and his festive red hat. This emoji is quite literally the symbol of the Christmas spirit.
On some platforms, 🎅 Santa Claus' white beard may be replaced by a yellow one.
