Seemingly valid names are being reported as invalid by metadata service

Also, avatars do not currently work for domains with emojis or certain other characters:

avatar record doesn't work for domains with unicode characters

Both of those issues are waiting on all the upcoming normalization changes:

ENS Name Normalization

Very Rough Algorithm Outline Normalization Algorithm Transform a string into a normalized string. String padding (\s+) should be removed by the user. Various errors may be thrown during computation. Example Input: Raffy.eth Tokenize the string into a list labels, where each label is a list of Emoji and Text tokens, where each token contains codepoints: [ [Emoji(1F4A9), Text(52, 61, 66, 66, 79)], [Text(65, 74, 68)] ] Decode and Validate each label: Token[] → Token[] [Emoji(1F4A9)…

You can check yourself directly on the metadata service, just replace your token ID in this URL: https://metadata.ens.domains/mainnet/0x57f1887a8BF19b14fC0dF6Fd9B2acc9Af147eA85/69845409642262400928105080645461410625829953013136762866921256534530425483455

And if it’s still a mystery, and you don’t want to share the name publicly, create a ticket on Discord and I can take a look!
