in thread how to output file in Unicode

So, what's going on if first open, let it open with utf-8 io layer? 
open (FH, ">$outputfile") or die "$!";

[download]
revise to 
open (OUTPUT, ">:encoding(UTF-8)",$outputfile or die "$!";

[download]
What is the result?

update:
Second question: Is that $givenname?

    result is negative, i still see the givenname is not converted to Unicode UTF8, Example : Björn

    i edit the script as below, but it doesn't help

    open (OUTPUT, ">:encoding(UTF-8)",$outputfile) or die "Cannot open filename for input: $!";

    how about using perl module (utf8::all) does it help?

    yeah this is givenname :)

      One question. What do you use when you said "Björn"? I mean Browser? or Editor?

      Back to previous. 

      open (OUTPUT, ">",$outputfile) or die "Cannot open filename for input:
+ $!";

      [download]
      And Open your output file with Browser.What do you see when you change "Character Encoding" of Browser? Can you change it to UTF-8?

        this "Björn" appear only if i open the csv output file using microsoft excel

        using notepad or Editplus (editor) it looks good.
