These names were used for decades, before Unicode changed It should be renamed according to its function, i.e., SINGLE QUOTE or So the main name APOSTROPHE is even documented The Unicode documentation for this character says `preferred characterįor apostrophe is 2019'. So it really could be renamed to DOUBLE QUOTE, maybe with the Mark it as a functional character, and relate it to the other ASCII

Renaming it to DOUBLE QUOTE, would uniquely characterize the character, Have codes outside the ASCII range the name for U+0022 may be changed

Quotation marks greatly vary for different languages, e.g., English, The Unicode name QUOTATION MARK for this character is ambiguous. In programmingĭocumentation, it is referred to as the DOUBLE QUOTE character, whereas Programming languages use it to denote strings. The character " is a double quote - just look at it. At this point, the difference betweenįunctional characters and printable representations will become crucial. This might not seem a big problem today, but there are some long-termĬonsiderations in some interpreter languages to include wide characters Unfortunately, some names (and glyphs) do not reflect this functional Order to get more beautiful, printable look-alikes. Unicode usually honors this fact by providing alternative characters in This makes the ASCII characters primarily functional.

This led toĮxtensions like the well-known code-pages, ISO character standards, and Representations for some of these functional characters. In later years, text processing required better Historically, the 7-bits ASCII characters were used for databases and Naming, tho a functionally oriented naming would be more suitable. Tries to point out some places where Unicode uses a text-oriented Glyph approach instead of the intended character abstraction.
