The woman raising her hand? Apple calls her “Happy Woman Raising One Hand”: Let’s say you type the Apple name for an emoji. Unicode Name: □ Grinning Face With One Large and One Small Eye.Apple does its own localisation, often resulting in its own unique name This emoji is called “□ Goofy Face” on the Mac. There’s no requirement that vendors use either of these Unicode-specified names. These localised names can change over time, and are often different to the Unicode code point name, even in English. Unicode also keeps a set of characters names in a repository (called CLDR) that is localised into many languages. The name of the code point is always in English, and can never change. There is a code point for this in the Unicode Standard known as □ U+1F92A GRINNING FACE WITH ONE LARGE AND ONE SMALL EYE. The search term that will make her appear is “raising”:Ī fun part of this is that the emoji with the raised eyebrow will appear for the term “raised” yet not “eyebrow”Įach emoji can have multiple names. How about the woman with the raised hand? □♀️ Don’t type “raised”. □ Fork and Knife With Plate so for some reason the search needs to start with fork? Okay. The obvious thing to type? “Plate” of course. You open Apple’s built-in emoji picker on macOS (Ctrl-Cmd-Space) and type a search term. I’ve been aware of this for quite some time, but until recently haven’t sat down to figure out what’s going on.
