The unpronounceable symbol is an alias used by from June 7 1993 to May 16 2000 - he changed his stage name to the symbol which is a combination of the symbols for male (ā) and female (ā). Because the symbol is unpronounceable, he's often referred by others as "The Symbol", "The Artist Formerly Known as Prince", "T.A.F.K.A.P.", or simply "The Artist" - the formally correct term (later copyrighted & printed on releases) is "Love Symbol".
