I wanted the julia circles logo for my personal website. Although this is possible to draw and include it as a picture, I wondered if there was a unicode character that I could use. It seems there is none.
Is there interest from the community to create one and [apply](https://unicode.org/emoji/proposals.html) collectively to the Unicode Consortium? The design is easy and can be done using Luxor.jl.

After reading this:

I’d suggest that it’s not worth pursuing… Logos are specifically excluded.

Typically the way to do this — especially on the web — is not with Unicode but with something like FontAwesome. See the request here: [Icon request: Julia · Issue #14187 · FortAwesome/Font-Awesome · GitHub](https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/issues/14187)
We also have custom emoji here with `:julia:` :julia:

That’s cool, I didn’t know! But I noticed that it’s a very old version of the logo:
It’s the old two-tone version, and it’s also slightly transparent, which makes it look wrong on a dark background:
whereas you probably want:

Interestingly, in various platforms like Notion, I’ve adopted the snake emoji 🐍 to symbolize Python. Recently, I’ve been contemplating an appropriate emoji for Julia. I realized that the abacus emoji 🧮 is quite fitting, as it not only represents mathematics but also features colored dots. **Do you have a specific emoji that you use to represent Julia?**

🤹♀️ or 🚥 might be close
abacus could be misinterpreted perhaps

I think Discourse shows you the Twitter emoji set, not the Apple/Google/Microsoft ones. Emojis are not always very good for communicating clearly… 🙂
