Latin Capital Letter Eth Ð
Capital Eth is the uppercase form of ð, used in Icelandic and Faroese for a 'th' sound as in 'this'. Icelandic words never begin with ð, so the capital appears mainly in all-caps text. It was also used in Old English manuscripts, and scholars use it in editions of Old English and Old Norse texts.

Good to know
Don’t mix it up: Often confused with Đ (U+0110), the capital D with stroke used in Croatian, Serbian Latin, and Vietnamese, which looks identical in many fonts.
Tip: When typing Croatian or Vietnamese names like Đorđević or Đà Nẵng, use Đ (U+0110), not Ð.
Display: the character itself is always the same code point, but its shape comes from the font on the device showing it. If you see an empty box, the font lacks this glyph—the text is still correct.
