```
### Get version from unicode

const emojione = require('emojione');
function unicodeToName(emojiUnicode) {

# About
Emoji name list is pulled from [EmojiOne](https://github.com/Ranks/emojione)
We grab the emoji unicode versions from [Emojipedia](http://emojipedia.org/unicode-6.1/).
[ZWJ sequences](http://emojipedia.org/emoji-zwj-sequences/) use the unicode version for the highest individual emoji in the sequence.
