Of course, one should avoid mixing up different scripts in the same
orthography. So, I'd suggest:
- aɛbbuḍ ("epsilon"): Ɛ U+0190 (LATIN CAPITAL LETTER OPEN E), ɛ
U+0259 (LATIN SMALL LETTER OPEN E)
- aɣrum ("gamma"): Ɣ U+0194 (LATIN CAPITAL LETTER GAMMA), ɣ U+0263
(LATIN SMALL LETTER GAMMA)

The only dubious case in the table is uppercase aɣrum, which could have the
Greek shape. But it's unlikely.
