The naming conventions for glyph names can be found in mf/README:

All the Emmentaler glyph names can be found in the LilyPond Notation
Reference: Appendix A.8 - The Emmentaler font
<http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/the-emmentaler-font.html>
You can generate a list of all the Emmentaler glyph names using the scheme
function ly:otf-glyph-list:
#(pretty-print (ly:otf-glyph-list (ly:system-font-load "emmentaler-20")))
