💞 Hearts Emojis Collection

💞 “Hearts” Collection of emoji symbolizes strong feelings and sincere emotions. Such as passion, love and affection, for example. The meaning behind the emojis included in the set is rarely about anatomy.

Later on, all Unicode characters with at least one heart icon have been included in the 💞 “Hearts” collection.

As a result, the collection comprises more than 40 emoji items. 20 items on the list look like regular 🤍 Hearts, but vary in modifications and color. Other emojis of the collection don’t only contain hearts, but are also in some way linked to the notion of “love.” Like for instance they can depict 👩❤️👨 couples in love or a 💏 Kiss.
