Issues

unhinted/variable-ttf/NotoSerifTamilSlanted-VF.ttf uses the family name "NotoSerifTamilSlanted", inconsistently from "Noto Serif Tamil Slanted" used in OTF/TTF.

Similarly unhinted/variable-ttf/NotoSansMeeteiMayek-VF.ttf uses "Noto Sans MeeteiMayek" instead of "Noto Sans Meetei Mayek".

unhinted/variable-ttf/NotoSerifNyiakengPuachueHmong-VF.ttf uses the name "Noto Serif Nyiakeng Puachue Hmong" instead of "Noto Serif Hmong Nyiakeng".

unhinted/variable-ttf/NotoSansHanifiRohingya-VF.ttf has messed up the full names, they are all "Noto Sans Hanifi Rohingya" without styles such as Regular, Bold, etc.

unhinted/variable-ttf/NotoSansHebrewNew-VF.ttf has "Noto Sans Hebrew New Light Light", not sure where this came from as there are no corresponding OTF/TTF files. Similarly unhinted/variable-ttf/NotoSansHebrew-VF.ttf has "Noto Sans Hebrew Light Light".

Steps to reproduce

fc-scan on the relevant files and their TTF/OTF equivalents.
