Is it possible to add a metadata / keywords to each icon to make them more searchable? I think the best example of this is the "dismiss" icon. I think most people would usually search for "x" or "close" or "exit" — something along those lines. This same pattern repeats itself for many of the icons. If you don't nail the actual name when you search, you're out of luck.

These can also be added in Figma in the component's description field to make them searchable there if you're really feeling ambitious :)

Not sure if you'd have any way of opening up these tags for suggestion by the community here, but that would certainly lighten the load.

Hey @Andyrrrrr, Yes, this was already under consideration. I was thinking of getting synonyms from the Datamuse api.

Could probably run a script and get these and integrate it with the search we've in the website.

Will definitely look into this soon.
