Bracket Symbols — Copy and Paste Frames
Brackets are the fastest way to make one word look designed. Wrap a name in 【】 or 「」 and it reads like a label instead of plain text. These pairs are copied together so the frame is always complete.

Bracket symbols
Most of these come from Japanese and Chinese typography, where 【】 and 「」 are everyday quotation marks. That origin is why they render so reliably — half the phones in the world need them for normal writing. They also inherit text styling, so inside a fancy font style they keep working where a drawn border would not. Each entry below is a matching open-and-close pair; paste it, then type inside.
