I just found it confusing to have "Other" appear 3 times with different 
characters and thought since we kind of used the official Unicode names, 
it would make sense to use them for the "Others" as well.

I don't have a strong opinion about it however.

Well, if we want to.  These sections will become rather short.
The names are also not very meaningful, how many users would be looking
for "Alphabetic Presentation Forms", unless you already know where they
are.

Does having 3 Other sections make sense?

Shouldn't those be better (according to Unicode):

Letterlike (U+2100-U+214F)
Optical Character Recognition (U+2440-U+245F)
Enclosed CJK Letters (U+3200-U+32FF)
Alphabetic Presentation Forms (U+FB00-U+FB4F)
