Decorative Brackets 【】「」『』Copy Paste for Usernames & Titles
This collection offers 40 bracket patterns using East Asian typography characters—lenticular brackets【】, corner brackets「」, and ornamental frames like ꧁꧂—to wrap and emphasize text. These Unicode bracket characters transform ordinary usernames into distinctive display names, turn plain titles into eye-catching headers, and add structured elegance to any text.
Most of these characters originated in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean typography, where they serve specific grammatical and stylistic functions. Lenticular brackets【】mark book titles and proper nouns. Corner brackets「」indicate quotations. White corner brackets『』denote titles within titles. Western internet users adopted these for aesthetic purposes—the bold, geometric frames stand out in contexts where ordinary parentheses feel weak.
The Javanese ornamental characters ꧁꧂ became a viral sensation around 2018-2019, appearing in gaming usernames, Facebook display names, and everywhere attention-grabbing text was needed. Their elaborate curves make them the "maximum decoration" option—use when subtlety isn't the goal.
