Unicode Version 17.0

🅬

U+1F16C "🅬" Raised Mr Sign is a typographic symbol designed to represent the abbreviated title "Mr." in a compact, elevated form, similar to how a superscript "r" might appear in formal writing. It was added to the Unicode Standard as part of the Enclosed Alphanumeric Supplement block, intended for use in contexts where a stylized, enclosed abbreviation is needed, such as in signage, labels, or digital typography. This character helps standardize the representation of the honorific in electronic text, ensuring consistent rendering across different platforms and fonts, though it remains relatively obscure compared to more common symbols.
