About this emoji

💡 Light Bulb is an emoji in the Objects group, light & video subgroup, first released in Emoji 0.6 (2010). Emoji 0.6 is the label Unicode gives to characters that became emoji with Unicode 6.0 in 2010, before emoji had version numbers of their own.

CLDR, the Unicode project that supplies emoji names in many languages, gives it the English keywords bulb, comic, electric, idea and light; that is what emoji keyboards match when you search.

It is a single code point, U+1F4A1, named ELECTRIC LIGHT BULB in the Unicode standard.
