Unable to use :person_shrugging: emoji in button?

Anyone know how I can use 🤷 emoji in a button? When I do \:person_shrugging: and copy/paste it into the name field I get � and an error. Here is the code for the button:

new ButtonBuilder()
    .setCustomId('button')
    .setEmoji({ name: ':person_shrugging:'})
    .setStyle(ButtonStyle.Secondary)

new ButtonBuilder()
    .setCustomId('button')
    .setEmoji({ name: ':person_shrugging:'})
    .setStyle(ButtonStyle.Secondary)

The error I get is

DiscordAPIError[50035]: Invalid Form Body
data.components[0].components[1].emoji.name[BUTTON_COMPONENT_INVALID_EMOJI]: Invalid emoji

DiscordAPIError[50035]: Invalid Form Body
data.components[0].components[1].emoji.name[BUTTON_COMPONENT_INVALID_EMOJI]: Invalid emoji

the character given from \:person_shrugging: is the correct way :person_shrugging: is invalid please ensure that no miscellaneous characters are in the string alongside 🤷 I'm assuming the error you receive when using this as the name is the same as the one shown if not, please show the error

i got the � character from copying \:person_shrugging: into my ide and I get the same error as above when I use � instead of :person_shrugging: not sure if there is a special code or id or something for this emoji like there is for some specific emojis in discord.py

there is not 🤷 is the name of the emoji

that character gives me � character when I copy paste it into my code

which is definitely interesting, since it seems that the character just isn't being copied properly, especially since it comes back as � when you paste it here

does it behave the same when copying the character when editing your message like so?
