Description

I could imagine that this is an upstream quickshell issue but I don't know and couldn't find anything.

The launcher uses wrong the translated name of GNOME Evolution. It uses "𐑧𐑝𐑩𐑤𐑵𐑖𐑩𐑯" instead of "Evolution". This is from an entry in the desktop file (attached as txt file) as follows:

Name[en@shaw]=·𐑧𐑝𐑩𐑤𐑵𐑖𐑩𐑯

org.gnome.Evolution.desktop.txt

Expected Behavior

Evolution is displayed as "Evolution"

I do expect quickshell issue, I'll check it out and possibly get a PR there - but he's pretty slow at reviewing these days so hopefully he's quick with it.
