That's with Unicode UTF-8 selected as the encoding.
These 7 characters are U+10332 U+1033F U+10344 U+10339 U+10343 U+1033A

I can see what it should look like by pasting the name into SC Unipad.
As this is a dead language, it's not critical. Just thought the observation
was worth reporting.
Hey now. Gothic is one of the few languages I'm fairly good at! I've
been contemplating doing a translation from the Gothic, in fact, akin to
the translations people do from other texts that aren't Greek, Hebrew,
or Aramaic. The Gothic Bible has at least a claim of being a bit older
than the Vulgate.
btw. I have SIL Graphite enabled in my Firefox config, which means that most
complex scripts should be supported.
Gothic is one of the less complex scripts. It only has 2 diacritics: a
diaeresis to distinguish two forms of <i> and an overline to mark
numerals & abbreviations. Our text probably doesn't even use the overline.
The text above, <gutiska>, looks fine in Thunderbird on Ubuntu Precise.
