Heh -- don't you think that should be "DAVIS MARK"? :-)

Precedents for such character naming exist:

$ grep ";[A-Z]* MARK;" UnicodeData.txt
0021;EXCLAMATION MARK;Po;0;ON;;;;;N;;;;;
0022;QUOTATION MARK;Po;0;ON;;;;;N;;;;;
003F;QUESTION MARK;Po;0;ON;;;;;N;;;;;
203B;REFERENCE MARK;Po;0;ON;;;;;N;;;;;
2120;SERVICE MARK;So;0;ON;<super> 0053 004D;;;;N;;;;;
2713;CHECK MARK;So;0;ON;;;;;N;;;;;
274C;CROSS MARK;So;0;ON;;;;;N;;;;;
3003;DITTO MARK;Po;0;ON;;;;;N;;;;;
3012;POSTAL MARK;So;0;ON;;;;;N;;;;;
3013;GETA MARK;So;0;ON;;;;;N;;;;;
303C;MASU MARK;Lo;0;L;;;;;N;;;;;
1F48B;KISS MARK;So;0;ON;;;;;N;;;;;

The last one is particularly interesting! ;-)
