Problem: Emoji short names are not translated

[jorgesat]

Native ecko emoji short names are all in English even after changing the interface to another language. I guess this is because emoji-mart does not offer translated interfaces?

I have found these issues related to emoji-mart translations:
missive/emoji-mart#527
missive/emoji-mart#384
It seems there is no solution within emoji-mart at the moment.

Proposed solution:

• Switch to anothe emoji picker?
• Make the admin able to edit the emoji database?

I read through the links you provided but still don't quite understand the problem. Are you saying the text that's shown on mouseover of an emoji and can be used to type in the emojis, should change language based on the interface? If so, that definitely seems like a valid problem, but feel free to correct if I'm off.
