Meaning & usage

Katakana me (メ) is a gaming-themed ornament or text illustration.

Use it in a nickname or profile where such decoration is allowed; multi-character illustrations require a compatible font.

U+30E1 identifies this exact katakana me form; copying the character preserves its Unicode identity, while its appearance depends on the font or emoji renderer.

katakana me occupies one Unicode code point. A similar-looking letter, punctuation mark or emoji is not necessarily interchangeable with メ in search, filenames or text processing.

How to type katakana me

Windows
Use Win + . for the emoji and symbol panel, or Character Map for supported fonts. In Microsoft Word, enter each hexadecimal code (30E1) and press Alt + X. There is no universal decimal Alt code for this character; legacy Alt codes depend on the code page.
Mac
Open Character Viewer with Control + Command + Space and search for katakana me. With the Unicode Hex Input keyboard enabled, hold Option and enter the UTF-16 units shown above. Standard Option shortcuts do not cover every Unicode symbol.
Linux
In compatible GTK applications, press Ctrl + Shift + U, enter 30E1, then Enter. Enter each code point separately for sequences. Other desktops or apps may require their character picker.
iPhone & Android
Look for katakana me in your emoji keyboard if available, or copy it here and paste. Save frequently used symbols as a text replacement or keyboard shortcut; availability varies by keyboard.
