RGI means Recommended for General Interchange, i.e. an grapheme cluster that emoji fonts are expected to include a glyph for as standard, as opposed to other sequences with U+200D or U+FE0F (or even codepoints without emoji status which are not marked with U+FE0F, e.g. on Samsung devices) which specific emoji fonts might decide to include.

Hello,

what, on earth (and in Unicode jargon), does “RGI” mean?

The obvious place to look for Unicode specific abbreviations
is <https://www.unicode.org/faq/alpha_soup.html>, but I cannot
find it there. Experts, please amend the FAQ with all common
Unicode acronyms.

Best wishes,
   Otto Stolz
