Nameprep

  

Nameprep

Nameprep is the process of Unicode NFKC normalization, case-folding, mapping lookalike characters together, and elimination of restricted codepoints applied to text before it is suitable to represent a domain name, or other such canonical name.

Nameprep is defined in RFC 3491, "Nameprep: A Stringprep Profile for Internationalized Domain Names (IDN)".
