The moment
Your Christmas PFP comes as a picture and a video
The Christmas PFP look is a set of characters in Santa hats, each with its own square. One character gets the whole picture, two share a matching pair, and more fill a neat sheet. In the manga style the hat is the only colour on the page, and that's the look the trend's posts are full of.
Your Christmas PFP arrives as a square JPG, ready to crop to any one character for your profile on TikTok, Instagram, Discord or X, and as a 6-second video of the picture under falling snow with music, ready to post.
- Up to 8 characters
- Manga, colour anime or photo
- A red Santa hat on each
- A JPG and a 6-second video with music

FAQ
Christmas PFP AI FAQ
What is a Christmas PFP?
+
A Christmas PFP is a profile picture made for the holidays, usually a person or a character in a Santa hat. Changing to a Christmas PFP has become a yearly trend on TikTok, Instagram and Discord from early November, with anime and manga styles the most popular.
How do I make an anime Christmas PFP from my photo?
+
To make an anime Christmas PFP, pick how many characters, pick Manga or Colour anime on this page, upload a clear picture of each and hit Generate. MakeMeme draws them in that style with red Santa hats in one square picture, so there's no drawing or app to learn.
Can I add a Santa hat to my profile picture and keep it a photo?
+
Yes. For a Christmas PFP that stays a photo, pick “Keep it a photo”: the Santa hat goes on your head, with Christmas lights and snow softly blurred behind you, and you stay realistic. It's a quick way to get a Santa hat PFP.
Can I make a Christmas PFP of my cat, my dog or a character?
+
Yes. The Christmas PFP AI works on cats, dogs and other pets, which keep their own colours and markings, and on cartoon characters, mascots and even objects, all with a Santa hat. Upload a clear picture with the face or front in view.
Can I make a matching Christmas PFP for a couple?
+
Yes. For a matching Christmas PFP, pick 2 characters and upload one photo of each of you: you both get a Santa hat, side by side in one picture and in the same style, so each half crops to its own avatar.
What do I get from the Christmas PFP AI?
+
From the Christmas PFP AI you get two downloads: a square JPG with all your characters in Santa hats, and a 6-second square video of that picture under falling snow with music. With several characters, crop the JPG to the one you want as your profile picture.
How many characters can I put in a Christmas PFP?
+
A Christmas PFP on MakeMeme holds up to 8 characters: pick 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 or 8 and upload one picture of each. All of them come out in one picture in the same style, and the price stays the same however many you pick.
Which photo works best for a Christmas PFP?
+
For a Christmas PFP, a clear picture with the head and shoulders in view works best, in good light, with the face easy to see. Leave some room above the head for the Santa hat if you can.
What AI is used for the Christmas PFP?
+
The Christmas PFP on MakeMeme uses the AI image model that fits this trend best: it redraws your pictures in the style you pick and keeps everyone recognisable, and adds the Santa hats, and MakeMeme turns the picture into a video with falling snow and music.
Is the Christmas PFP AI free?
+
No. AI generation is expensive to run, so making a Christmas PFP always costs money. On MakeMeme each one costs 20 credits, paid from a credit pack, with no watermark. Most are ready in a few minutes, and we email you when yours is done.
Only upload photos of yourself, of your pets, of people who agreed or of characters. MakeMeme isn't affiliated with the creators of the viral clips or the owners of the characters shown in them.
