Blackletter from Unicode
The gothic letters here come from the Unicode Fraktur alphabets, named after the typeface used in German printing for centuries. People also call this style Old English. Gothic is the lighter version; Gothic Bold is darker and reads better at small sizes.
Five capitals of the regular style, ℭ, ℌ, ℑ, ℜ and ℨ, live in another part of Unicode, so on some devices they look slightly different from the rest of the word.
Tips
Blackletter is hard to read in long text. It works for a name, a title or a single word. Capital letters are the most decorative, so try writing the first letter of each word in upper case.
Questions
Is gothic text the same as Old English font?
Yes, people use both names for blackletter. Here it is made of Unicode characters, so you can paste it anywhere.
Why are there only two gothic styles?
Unicode has two Fraktur alphabets, regular and bold. We only show styles that really exist, not the same letters under different names.
Can I use it for a nickname?
Yes. The nickname generator adds frames like ꧁ ꧂ around it.
