"... which forced me to think outside the box, be creative, to have any chance of concocting a plausible emoji for a typical Perl Monk name ..."

Thinking outside the box, and given Unicode's plethora of symbols, it occurred to me that symbolic representations of monk's names could be achieved without emoji. Although not as colourful perhaps, I think they could be just as clever.

Consider this for Corion: ͨ∨⚛︎⁺ 

$ uparse ͨ∨⚛︎⁺

============================================================
String: 'ͨ∨⚛︎⁺'
============================================================
        U+368    COMBINING LATIN SMALL LETTER C
∨       U+2228   LOGICAL OR
⚛       U+269B   ATOM SYMBOL
        U+FE0E   VARIATION SELECTOR-15
⁺       U+207A   SUPERSCRIPT PLUS SIGN
------------------------------------------------------------

[Note 1: For those unfamiliar with the uparse command, see "uparse - Parse Unicode strings".]

[Note 2: U+269B ATOM SYMBOL does not have the Emoji Presentation property. It should, by default, be rendered in its text form. Either my browser or font are not honouring this. I added U+FE0E VARIATION SELECTOR-15 to force text rendering.]
