Re: [Python-ideas] Unicode Name Aliases keyword argument abbreviation in unicodedata.name for missing names

[Robert Vanden Eynde]

I like your alias(...) function, with that one, an application could code my 
function like try name(x) expect alias(x).abbreviations[0]. If the abbreviation 
list is sorted by AdditionToUnicodeDate.

Or

try:
    return name(x)
expect:
     if category(x) == 'Cc':
        return alias(x).abbreviations[0]
    else:
        raise

That would then raise only for unassigned codepoints.
