I don't see the value in adding the word "Emacs" to the icon. Icons generally have the name of the program underneath or beside them anyway (unless they are in the top left of a frame, in which case the frame's titlebar should say what the program is), so it doesn't make sense to duplicate this information in the icon itself.
