What 𭙏 means
It represents the Chinese surname 廖, pronounced Liào in Mandarin.
The Chinese label 二简字 (erjianzi) refers to forms from this second-round plan. Its first-table forms were briefly tried in print; that trial ended in 1978.
Can I write a person's name as 𭙏 today?
No; use 廖 in standard Chinese writing.
Why is 𭙏 still encoded?
It remains available for reproducing historical text.
A 2009 Unicode proposal included it under 廖 so texts from the short print trial could be reproduced digitally. Unicode assigns stable identities to digital text characters; recording this form does not recommend using it.

1Why does 𭙏 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
