I will always point out what I usually do every time this accented character talk comes up:
This site makes it easy to search all the unicode points:
http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/search.htm
For example, you could search for "circumflex" and then scroll through the table until you find what you need:
http://www.fileformat.info/info/unic...preview=entity
Or I prefer the Wikipedia articles. These are organized well and make it super easy to copy/paste a single character:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macron
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grave_accent
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acute_accent
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaeresis_%28diacritic%29
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumflex
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caron
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_letters
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_...ics#Lower_case
Side Note: I have had many of the above tabs opened up on my Firefox for the past 4+ years.

I see not much has changed. Way back in 2014, you said the same thing in GrannyGrump's "German Blackletter" thread:

You + GrannyGrump also caused me to add Babelmap to my repertoire (although I
still prefer the organization of the Wikipedia articles + making the font size HUGE).

Does this method output the unicode single character glyph or the double character "letter + combining accent"?
