Actually, the "name" first is just the official Unicode name of that
char, which is only indirectly linked to Emacs's (and fonts's) notion of
a script, from what I understand.

I suggest you M-x report-emacs-bug requesting a new feature that
displays (in C-x =) the charsets (and/or scripts) that the
current char belongs to.
