```
Names for singular codepoints are not included, but you can use [unicode-name](https://github.com/janlelis/unicode-name) for that purpose. This is how you could use both libraries together to get the most relevant name of a character:
```ruby
name = Unicode::SequenceName.of(char) || Unicode::Name.readable(char)
```
