About the Cayman Islands flag emoji
A Blue Ensign with the Cayman coat of arms, a lion and three stars on wavy lines with a turtle above — that is the Cayman Islands flag as an emoji, 🇰🇾. The Cayman Islands flag is built from the regional indicator letters K and Y, the two-letter code KY, which fonts join into the single Cayman Islands flag. Windows has no flag artwork, so there KY appears as the letters K Y. Cayman Islands (KY) joined the flag set in Emoji 1.0 (2015); KY renders on every major platform except Windows. Copy KY from the card; the flag emoji hub groups Cayman Islands with the other Caribbean flags, such as Montserrat, listed beside Cayman Islands.
