That's because U+1F541 has "BELL" as its 'name' property, whereas
u+0007 has "BELL" as its 'old-name' property. Emacs completion picks
only one from these 2 duplicate candidates.
Perhaps some completion guru could find a way to allow multiple
candidates with the same name in this case.

Emacs 23.4 supported an earlier version of Unicode, where U+1F541 was
unavailable. IOW, what you see there is sheer luck.
