How can I best display a blank space character?

A web app I’m writing singles out individual characters found on a traditional keyboard. I have a very limited area in which the character can be displayed (which is basically the width of a W character in the font I’m using) meaning I can’t display the word “space” or “blank space”.
How can I best display the blank space character?
I’ve tried a couple of options, but I’m not sure if these would just lead to confusion:
Using underline. This looks a bit too similar to the underscore character.
The space symbol (
␠
(␠)). I didn’t even know this existed until I started looking for answers to this question myself, so I’m not sure if this is widely recognised.A faint bottom border in a different colour.
A block character (
█
(█)) like those used in a terminal to represent the cursor.A blank space with no style applied.
I suppose it’s worth noting that this is purely for display purposes; the user has no interaction with the character other than acknowledging it’s there when reading through the page (so I’m not asking about What character can I use to represent the space bar?).
