Soft circled letters and numbers
Bubble Text Generator
This bubble text generator puts every letter and number inside a circle, so "bubble" becomes ⓑⓤⓑⓑⓛⓔ or 🅑🅤🅑🅑🅛🅔, ready to copy and paste into a bio, caption, comment, or display name. It works as a circle text generator too: bubble letters and circled letters are the same Unicode characters, from the Enclosed Alphanumerics blocks, so the result pastes as real text, not an image.
You get two looks. Outlined bubbles (Ⓐ ⓐ ①) cover capitals, lowercase, and numbers, and they show up on almost every device. Filled bubbles (🅐 ❶) are solid black circles with white letters, capitals only, and they need a newer font. Type below, compare both, and copy the one you like. For bubble letters you draw yourself, like 3D or graffiti styles, see bubble letters to copy and paste.

Copy the version you want with one tap.
Paste it into Instagram, TikTok, Discord, or a comment, and check it once, since a few older phones show filled bubbles as boxes.
Built for real places you paste text.
Instagram & TikTok bios
A bubble-letter name or one bubble word in a bio stands out in a feed and stays readable. It won't work in the @username, which only takes plain letters, numbers, periods, and underscores. See the Instagram bio walkthrough and bubble text for Instagram and TikTok.
Discord, games & chats
Bubble display names, server nicknames, and message accents. Outlined bubbles are also a cute pick for Adopt Me pet names, and they're one of the few styles that show in Minecraft Bedrock.
Lists, labels & notes
Circled numbers like ① ② ③ make neat step labels in captions, notes, and plain-text documents where you can't use a real numbered list.
What is circle text, and is it the same as bubble text?
Yes. "Circle text", "circled letters", "bubble text", and "bubble letters" all describe the same copy-paste characters: letters and numbers drawn inside a circle. They're single Unicode characters, not a font, so Ⓐ is one character with its own code point (U+24B6), just like a regular A (U+0041).
The one difference is in drawn lettering. Hand-drawn or graphic "bubble letters" are puffy, rounded shapes, like 3D or graffiti text, made in an image editor. Those can't be pasted as text. The copy-paste version is always the circled kind.
Which circle and bubble letter styles can you copy?
There are four sets of circled characters in Unicode, and the generator covers the two letter sets. Outlined is the safest. Filled looks bolder but works on fewer devices. You can copy the full sets straight from this table.
| Style | Characters | Unicode range | Support |
|---|---|---|---|
| Outlined capitals | Ⓐ Ⓑ Ⓒ Ⓓ Ⓔ Ⓕ Ⓖ Ⓗ Ⓘ Ⓙ Ⓚ Ⓛ Ⓜ Ⓝ Ⓞ Ⓟ Ⓠ Ⓡ Ⓢ Ⓣ Ⓤ Ⓥ Ⓦ Ⓧ Ⓨ Ⓩ | U+24B6–U+24CF | Almost every device |

Circled numbers 10 to 20
Unicode has single characters for ⑩ through ⑳, but the generator converts one digit at a time, so typing 12 gives ①②. For a single circled 10–20, copy it from the table above. There are also circled numbers up to 50 (㉑ to ㊿) in the Enclosed CJK block, but fewer fonts include them.
Why filled bubbles are capitals only
Unicode added the filled set, called Negative Circled Latin Capital Letters, in version 6.0 (2010), and it never included lowercase. So the generator turns both a and A into 🅐. If you need mixed case, use outlined bubbles.
Where do bubble and circle letters work?
Outlined bubble letters work anywhere you can type text: Instagram, TikTok, X, Facebook, WhatsApp, Discord, Google Docs, and Word. Filled bubbles work in the same places but can show as empty boxes on older Android phones and older Discord or Windows versions, because those fonts don't have the U+1F150 characters.
No platform lets you use them in a login username or @handle, which are limited to plain characters. Use them in display names, bios, captions, and messages instead. In Word, paste with Ctrl+Shift+V (plain text) so the document's font doesn't swap the circles for something else.
Tips for using bubble text well
Keep bubble text short. One word or a name reads well, but a full sentence of circled letters is slow to read and hard to scan. Mix it with plain text, like ⓢⓐⓡⓐⓗ | travel + coffee, rather than circling the whole bio.
Screen readers read circled letters as "circled latin small letter s" and so on, which is slow and confusing for blind and low-vision readers. Don't put important information, like a link or a price, only in bubble text.
Frequently asked questions
01How do I copy and paste bubble letters?+
Type your text into the generator above, tap Copy on the bubble result, and paste it wherever you need it. There's no font or app to install, because the circled letters are Unicode characters.
02What's the difference between circled and filled bubble text?+
Circled (outlined) bubble letters like ⓐ and Ⓐ are outlines, and they cover both cases plus numbers. Filled bubble letters like 🅐 are white letters in solid black circles. They're capitals only and need a newer font, so they show as boxes on more devices.
03Is a circle text generator the same as a bubble text generator?+
Yes. Both turn your letters into circled Unicode characters like ⓒⓘⓡⓒⓛⓔ. Different sites just use different names for the same thing.
04Do bubble fonts copy and paste on Instagram?+
Yes. Instagram bios, captions, and comments accept circled Unicode letters. They won't work in your @username, which is limited to plain letters, numbers, periods, and underscores.
05Why do some bubble letters show as boxes?+
That device's font doesn't have the glyph for the character. It happens most with filled bubbles (🅐) on older Android phones. Outlined bubbles have the widest support, so switch to them for anything important.
06Can I make bubble numbers too?+
Yes. Digits 0–9 convert to ⓪–⑨ outlined or ⓿–❾ filled. Single circled numbers from ⑩ to ⑳ also exist, so copy those from the table on this page.
07Why are there no lowercase filled bubble letters?+
Unicode only has filled circled capitals (U+1F150–U+1F169), so lowercase doesn't exist in that style. The generator turns lowercase into filled capitals. Use outlined bubbles if you need lowercase.
08Are bubble letters free to use?+
Yes. Circled letters are part of the Unicode standard, so anyone can use them, including on products and commercial posts. This generator is free with no sign-up.
09Can I use bubble letters in Word or Google Docs?+
Yes. Google Docs shows them as pasted. In Word, paste as plain text with Ctrl+Shift+V so it keeps the circled characters instead of changing fonts.
10Can I make 3D or graffiti bubble letters to copy and paste?+
No. 3D, puffy, and graffiti bubble letters are drawings, not characters, so they can't be pasted as text. Make them in an image editor like Canva, or see our bubble letters guide.
11Do bubble letters work in games?+
Often. Outlined bubbles pass the Roblox filter more often than most styles and are a popular choice for Adopt Me pet names. They're also one of the few styles that show in Minecraft Bedrock Edition. Filled bubbles are less reliable.
