That’s a bit exaggerated. It is cisis in Dutch and German etc. And
that’s just how you would call that note in these languages. So that’s a
very natural choice.

Back to the ♯ and ♭: I would also say: Why not integrate this into
lilypond (even though I would not use it because I want to use the keys
on my keyboard). In that case the double sharps should be done the same way:
𝄪 (U+1D12A) and
𝄫 (U+1D12B)

Cheers,
Joram
