What 𗫭 means
Entry 3094 gives it a family-name category. The gloss names a category, not one particular family name.
The script was devised around 1036 under Western Xia’s first emperor to write the Tangut language. Its characters resemble Chinese writing, but Tangut is a separate script. The written tradition includes Tongyin, a 12th-century rhyme book—a guide that groups words by sound—first printed in 1125. After Western Xia fell, Tangut remained in government, private, Buddhist, and other religious texts.

1Why does 𗫭 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
