Description

Describe the bug

https://react-icons.github.io/react-icons/search?q=sun gives names of IoSunny... but the import is not the same.

Minimal sample repository

import { IoSunnyOutline} from 'react-icons/io';

Expected behavior

Works

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • Device: PC
  • OS: Windows
  • Browser Webview2/Edge
  • Version ???

Additional context
Add any other context about the problem here.

import { IoSunnyOutline} from 'react-icons/io**5**';

Yeah please add the import to the clipboard rather than just the component name, it'll be easier to import then.

Research direction
