I downloaded Carlito-Regular.ttf from here
https://fontlibrary.org/en/font/carlito

and opened it in Fontforge and found:

65645 0x1006d U+???? "three.oldstyle"

and

65635 0x10063 U+???? "three.pnum.oldstyle"

But I guess these are not Postscript glyphnames but somehow stored in 
the TTF, because this

(Carlito-Regular.ttf) findfont /CharStrings get { pop ==only ( )print } forall

did not emit those names. 

There's apparently an enormous amount I don't know about fonts.
