What is 👹️ called?
👹️ is called the Ogre emoji.
More specifically known as the oni emoji or oni mask, after the supernatural beings of Japanese folklore. “Japanese ogre” is a common English explanation of the official name.
What does 👹️ mean?
👹 depicts an oni, a horned ogre from Japanese folklore, rather than a generic Western monster. It can represent oni masks, Japanese festivals and stories, demons, fierceness, or a frightening temper.
Informal messages may use it for somebody acting monstrous or angry. Cultural context is important: “ogre” is the official English emoji name, while “oni” more precisely identifies the figure behind the design.
Other meanings
Japanese folklore, an oni mask, a fierce guardian or villain, monstrous anger, Setsubun imagery, fantasy, or Halloween.
Example Usage
The festival display included a traditional oni mask 👹
He looked ready to become an ogre after that delay 👹
