A unique string used to identify each abstract character encoded in the standard.

• The character names in the Unicode Standard match those of the English edition of ISO/IEC 10646.
• Character names are immutable and cannot be overridden; they are stable identifiers.
• The name of a Unicode character is also formally a character property in the Unicode Character Database. Its long property alias is "Name" and its short property alias is "na". Its value is the unique string label associated with the encoded character.
