U+1F34C "🍌" Banana Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
🍌
U+1F34C "🍌" Banana is a graphical symbol representing a banana, typically depicted as a curved, yellow fruit with a brown or green stem, and is part of the Emoji pictographs block within the Unicode standard. It is used in digital communication to directly reference the fruit itself, or more broadly to imply concepts like potassium, humor, or tropical themes. The banana emoji often appears in playful or suggestive contexts, and it is notably one of the few emoji that displays differently depending on the platform, sometimes shown peeled or unpeeled. The character was introduced in Unicode 6.0 back in 2010, and it has since become a staple in modern text messaging and social media.
