Generally speaking: If you want folders to be on top, do it in your application. You should not prefix folders with "random characters" to make them listed in a specific place.
If you really want to, you could use
A Foldername
becauseA
is the lowest Unicode point character that is a letter (0x41
) You could also use@
(0x40
). I've seen@Foldername
in the wild a few times. I would not use numbers, because numbers are stupid, you also cannot easily change them if you want to have another folder between two already existing ones.Some applications might ignore non-letter characters (what is interpreted as a letter, depends on your locale) on sorting, though. So the safest would be
A
