Solution 1

Adding text inside a rectangle would help you solve the problem.

Rectangle r = new Rectangle() { Height = 100, Width = 100 };
TextBlock tb = new TextBlock();

Apart from this, you can also look at things like http://silverlemma.blogspot.in/2009/03/creating-graphical-shapes-dynamically.html[^].
