Without context, I agree, but Hugging Face is the name of the emoji added to Unicode 8.0 and Emoji 1.0 in 2015.

  But it's literally not the name of the emoji. Edit: It was my understanding the official name was "Smiling Face with Open Hands Emoji".

    https://emojipedia.org/hugging-face#technical https://emojipedia.org/hugging-face#technical The official URL is "hugging-face" and the technical page lists the Unicode Name as "Hugging Face" while calling it "Smiling Face with Open Hands Emoji". The original proposal was called "Gmail HUG FACE". https://www.unicode.org/L2/L2014/14174r-emoji-additions.pdf https://www.unicode.org/L2/L2014/14174r-emoji-additions.pdf
