Some research regarding the Unicode supplementary plane:

[4]	NameStartChar	::=	":" \| [A-Z] \| "_" \| [a-z] \| [#xC0-#xD6] \| [#xD8-#xF6] \| [#xF8-#x2FF] \| [#x370-#x37D] \| [#x37F-#x1FFF] \| [#x200C-#x200D] \| [#x2070-#x218F] \| [#x2C00-#x2FEF] \| [#x3001-#xD7FF] \| [#xF900-#xFDCF] \| [#xFDF0-#xFFFD] \| [#x10000-#xEFFFF]
[4a]	NameChar	::=	NameStartChar \| "-" \| "." \| [0-9] \| #xB7 \| [#x0300-#x036F] \| [#x203F-#x2040]

The character 𬉼 presented by Mike yesterday is "\u{2c27c}" and falls into the range [#x10000-#xEFFFF].

The character 📞presented by me yesterday is "\u{1f4de}" and falls into the same range.

Hence both are allowed in XML element names (even as first character), although mine is not a letter (and not allowed in _javascript_ variable names). XML does not look at character classes, only at code point ranges.
