What 祦 means

祦 means “blessing” or “good fortune.”

An early record appears in the Yupian, a Chinese dictionary associated with the Liang era, around 543. The later Guangyun and Jiyun sources—Chinese dictionaries organized by rhyme—preserve the same 福 gloss: “blessing.”

During the Ming era, an official named 張祦 is recorded with the courtesy name 介福, a formal name used alongside a personal name and containing 福 (“blessing”).

A rare character; in casual text it can look like a typo or a font test.

A box can mean the font lacks this glyph, even when the stored text is correct.
