What does a ren look like?

A ren is an ancient Egyptian symbol representing a person's name and identity, often depicted as a cartouche or an oval shape enclosing hieroglyphs. It signifies the importance of names in Egyptian culture, as names were believed to hold power and ensure an individual's existence in the afterlife. The ren is closely associated with the concept of immortality and the preservation of one's legacy. Its visual representation may vary but typically emphasizes the sanctity of a person's name.
