You can use them in your display name (the bold name on top of your profile), but Instagram’s actual @username only allows letters, numbers, periods, and underscores.

Generally, a star symbolizes excellence, hope, dreams, guidance, achievement, and magic. Specific meanings depend on the type — a filled star ★ often means “important” or “rated,” while a shooting star 🌠 represents wishes coming true.
