What 📛 means

A red, flame-shaped badge with a white label. It comes from the tulip-shaped name tags that small children wear at nursery school in Japan, and it stands for a name or an identity.

People use 📛 for introductions, event name tags, or 'hi, my name is'. It is uncommon outside Japan.

Many readers outside Japan take it for a fire badge or a 'no' sign, so it often gets sent to mean fire or heat.
