Cross symbol meanings
A cross can express faith, mark a footnote, show a negative answer, or mean multiplication. These four characters look related but serve different purposes; choose by meaning as well as appearance.
A symbol of faith
The Latin cross ✝ is commonly associated with Christianity. Choose this upright shape when you mean a Christian cross.
A mark in your text
The dagger † is used for footnotes, memorial dates, and decoration. It resembles a small cross, but its typographic name remains dagger.
A cross, as in “no”
The ballot X ✗ marks an incorrect answer or a negative choice. This X-shaped symbol is a mark, not a religious emblem.
A sign for “times”
The multiplication sign × belongs in maths and dimensions. Use it when your character needs to mean “times”, rather than substituting the letter x.
Decorate your name with a cross symbol
Pair a cross with your name or a few words to create a personal text decoration.

Cross symbol FAQ
Choose a cross symbol with confidence: copying, compatibility, and meaning explained.
How do I copy and paste a cross symbol?
Click or tap a cross symbol. A confirmation appears when it is copied. Then paste with Ctrl+V on Windows, Command+V on Mac, or your phone’s Paste command. If automatic copying is unavailable, we show selectable text so you can copy it manually.
What is the difference between a text cross symbol and an emoji?
A text cross symbol usually follows the font and color of your document. Emoji use your platform’s artwork. The Latin cross supports text (✝︎) and emoji (✝️) presentation requests, but an app can render them differently. Choose the Text or Emoji filter to compare.
Can I use a cross symbol in my bio or username?
You can paste a cross symbol into many bios, messages, and display-name fields. Account handles and usernames often have stricter rules. Test your chosen text in the actual field before saving; no symbol works in every platform’s username field.
Why does my cross symbol look different after pasting?
Copying a cross symbol transfers characters, not the font, size, or color shown here. Your destination app chooses how to display them. A square box usually means the font lacks that character. Try a simpler cross, such as † or ✝, or read our display guide.
Is every cross symbol here a Christian cross?
No. This collection includes religious crosses, typographic daggers, mathematical marks, and decorative shapes. Open cross symbol details to see the character’s name and usage. The Christian filter narrows the collection to cross characters associated with Christian traditions.
