OK. I see that for 000A there is not now an official Unicode name in
4.0, and that "LINE FEED (LF)" is an alias. Such an alias, shown in
uppercase letters, indicates that it _was_ the name of the character in
The Unicode Standard, Version 1.0. See The Unicode Standard 4.0, p. 415
("Aliases"). This seems odd. One intuitively assumes that any defined
Unicode character has a Unicode name.
