That's what I thought at first, but then I realized it could be useful for characters with diacritics, whose names are much more predictable in general (at least for some diacritic marks). And then you could add named sequences (http://www.unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/NamedSequences.txt) which are a couple of additional names for some specific *sequences* of Unicode characters.
