Squared Text Generator
Type text and the generator converts each Latin letter to its Unicode squared-letter counterpart, 🄰 🄱 🄲 for squared style, 🅰 🅱 🅲 for inverted (negative) squared. Only the 26 letters A-Z are mapped; digits, punctuation and any other script (Cyrillic, Greek, Arabic, Chinese and the rest) pass through unchanged. Each mapped letter is rendered in its own boxed outline. Looks great as a decorative flourish in Instagram bios, Twitter names, or plain-text titles.
How squared letters work
-
1
Type a short phrase
Only Latin letters A-Z are mapped. Numbers, punctuation and any other script stay unchanged.
-
2
Pick squared or negative
Squared = boxed outline with letter inside. Negative = filled background with white letter.
-
3
Case matters
Unicode only defines squared uppercase letters. Lowercase is auto-uppercased before the mapping.
-
4
Copy and paste
Plain Unicode: travels intact anywhere text is accepted.
The two main sets
Squared Latin Letters (U+1F130 to U+1F149):
🄰 🄱 🄲 🄳 🄴 🄵 🄶 🄷 🄸 🄹 🄺 🄻 🄼 🄽 🄾 🄿 🅀 🅁 🅂 🅃 🅄 🅅 🅆 🅇 🅈 🅉
Negative Squared Latin Letters (U+1F170 to U+1F189):
🅰 🅱 🅲 🅳 🅴 🅵 🅶 🅷 🅸 🅹 🅺 🅻 🅼 🅽 🅾 🅿 🆀 🆁 🆂 🆃 🆄 🆅 🆆 🆇 🆈 🆉
Special cases and look-alikes
- 🅰 (Negative Squared A), often used as a red “A” blood-type emoji. Context matters.
- 🅾 (Negative Squared O), blood-type O emoji.
- 🆎 (AB), blood-type AB (single emoji combining two letters).
- 🅱, the famous “B” emoji of internet meme fame.
- 🆒 🆓 🆔 🆕 🆖 🆗 🆙 🆚, squared multi-letter abbreviations (COOL, FREE, ID, NEW, NG, OK, UP, VS).
- This generator maps one letter at a time (A-Z). It does not produce the combined multi-letter glyphs above: typing
OKyields 🅾🅺, two separate letters, not 🆗.
Rendering quirks
- Platforms with full emoji support render these in color. iOS, Android, macOS and Windows 11 all do.
- Older systems (pre-2015) render them as monochrome boxed letters.
- SMS gateways sometimes strip them because they fall outside the GSM 7-bit set; they get encoded as UCS-2 and eat message quota.
- Screen readers say the full Unicode name (“Negative Squared Latin Capital Letter A”), which is verbose.
Practical uses (and abuses)
- Short emphasis in a bio.
🅽🅴🆆inside an otherwise plain sentence. - Separator for sections.
🅽🅴🆆 🅿🅾🆂🆃as a label. - Initial caps that scream.
🄷🄴🄻🄻🄾 🅆🄾🅁🄻🄳, overkill if used everywhere, striking once. - Usernames, most platforms accept them in display names but not handles.
Do not combine more than 4-5 squared letters in a row; they overwhelm fast, and the colorized variants (🅰🅱🅾) read as emoji more than as letters.
Frequently Asked Questions
On most emoji-capable platforms, Negative Squared Latin Capital Letter A (U+1F170) renders as a red blood-type symbol. It is the emoji presentation. The Unicode character itself is neutral; platforms added the color meaning.
Unicode does not define them. The squared block only has uppercase. Mixed-case input is uppercased before conversion.
No. Only the 26 Latin letters A-Z have squared Unicode counterparts, so Cyrillic, Greek, Arabic, Hebrew, Chinese, Japanese and other scripts are left exactly as typed, along with digits and punctuation.
Yes, in HTML-capable clients. Plain-text email mostly shows them correctly too, though very old clients may render tofu.
No, search engines treat these as distinct characters from the Latin alphabet. A name in squared letters is invisible to text search. Fine for decoration; bad for discoverability.
