const name1 = 'u0041u006du00e9u006cu0069u0065';
const name2 = 'u0041u006du0065u0301u006cu0069u0065';

console.log(`${name1}, ${name2}`);
// expected output: "Amélie, Amélie"
console.log(name1 === name2);
// expected output: false
console.log(name1.length === name2.length);
// expected output: false

const name1NFC = name1.normalize('NFC');

// expected output: "Amélie, Amélie"
