No, not usually. Culturally, most Mormons reject traditional Christian symbols such as the cross and the fish. While individual Mormons may use them if they wish, most Mormons feel that it is inappropriate to use a tangible symbol to represent deity, fearing that people may begin to worship the symbol as an idol rather than the holy being the symbol represents. The Church itself does not use any symbols to represent deity and does not have any official symbols, although the shape of the Angel Moroni statue is often used when a symbol is needed.

What does bible say about weraing crosses as a necklace?
It makes no comment whatsoever. But from Archaeology of 1st century Jerusalem gravesites and one early Christian synagogue we find that the earliest Church did use three symbols...the fish, the cross (not a crucifix...Jesus is risen), and a symbol where the bottom is a fish in the middle a Mogen David and a 7 lamp Menorah on top...So if the Apostles who were instructed by Christ had no problem with a cross as a symbol (not an idol that one worships or bows down to) neither should we... I hope this has helped Brother Paul
What signs do each Christian denomination use?
Well, Christians use mainly the cross, because our faith is based on the fact that we believe that Jesus died for our sins and rose again. Another sign that is used is the fish. They used this sign back long ago when Christian persecution was going on and people had to figure out if they could trust someone. They would draw half of a fish, and if the person was a Christian, they would draw the other half. If they didn't, the Christian knew not to trust them becaus they could be persecuted.
