Usage notes[edit]
The name of this Unicode character is a misnomer. The glyph associated with the name, "Jerusalem cross," according to the official Unicode character sheet is a simple cross potent, having four arms of equal length ending in bars, each like a rotated capital letter T.
The Jerusalem cross itself is a more complex symbol consisting of either a Greek cross (simply having four arms of equal length) or a cross potent, which is surrounded by four smaller Greek crosses, one in each corner.
