Following on from Perl Secret Operator Emojis, I thought it'd be fun to concoct emojis for some of the illustrious members of Saints in our Book.

Just like last time, this proved quite a challenge! Most of the time, on reading the Perl Monks name, nothing jumped out at me ... 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 ... which I found to be fun.

Without further ado, here's what I've come up with so far:

Perl MonkEmojiNotes
AppleFritter🍎🧇Excellent home node
BBQ🔥🥩Revered historical figure: Let's make BBQ a Saint!
Bod💪🦵The Bod has a muscular physique
BooK📕Obfu virtuoso, author of perlsecret
BioLion🔬🦁Long-time user of BioPerl
chipmunk🐿️Perl golf pioneer
cog⚙️Ascii Art in Html pioneer
gellyfish🪼Prominent member of London.pm
GrandFather👨‍🦳‍👧‍👦Number five at Saints in our Book
jdporter🛎️Long time maintainer of our PM web site
Limbic~Region🧠Brainy
merlyn🪄Legend
tachyon⚛️Physicist
Tux🐧Tux penguin from Linux (prefers badminton attire to a Tuxedo :)
tye👔Huge contributor to PM web site for many years
vroom🏎️PM founder (two interns, Vroon and Vroom, didn't bat an eye :)

Suggestions for improvements welcome ... as are emojis concocted for other Perl Monk names (especially your own PM name :).

Updated: Changed Tux from U+1F935 (Person in Tuxedo) to U+1F427 (Penguin) (thanks Tux). Added George_Sherston's classic node to See Also (thanks Discipulus). Noted that hippo was the first monk with a pure emoji sig. Noticed later that in addition to tachyon there is tachyon-II (don't know if they are the same person though).
