About this symbol

Unicode calls this character Greek Small Letter Alpha and gives it the code point U+03B1. It is part of the greek letters set on this site.

This is a text character rather than an emoji, so it takes the colour and font of the text around it. That is what makes symbols usable in usernames, form fields and games that reject emoji.
