You have Perl installed? Look in $PERL5LIB/unicode (or /unicore, depending on version) for NamesList.txt.

Note that in vim, you can already type a LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH MACRON by typing control-K, A, -. If you :set digraph, then you can use A, backspace, -, but I backspace so often that gets in the way. Creating a keymap so you don't need the control-K for commonly-needed characters is still a good idea, of course, but you might want to map it to -A instead of A- so that it doesn't pause every time you type A to see if you're going to type a - next. -Mark
