What is 🙈️ called?
🙈️ is called the See-no-evil monkey emoji.
Also known as See No Evil, Mizaru, or the covering-eyes monkey. “Shy monkey” and “embarrassed monkey” describe common modern uses rather than the traditional name.
What does 🙈️ mean?
🙈 is one of the Three Wise Monkeys and represents “see no evil.” In everyday messages it more often means “I cannot look,” embarrassment, shyness, playful horror, or hiding after an awkward mistake.
The traditional Japanese name is Mizaru. Together with 🙉 Hear no evil monkey and 🙊 Speak no evil monkey, it forms the familiar visual maxim about seeing, hearing, and speaking no evil.
Other meanings
Cringing, peeking through one’s fingers, feeling bashful, avoiding a spoiler, pretending not to notice, or reacting to something embarrassing.
Example Usage
I cannot watch the final penalty 🙈
I waved back before realising they meant somebody else 🙈
