How can I install a new Emblem in Gnome Files (nautilus)

Running Zorin 16. I'm looking for a way to install a new Emblem in Files? Currently there are Important, In Progress, Favourite, Finished and New. I'd like to add some others.

The emblems are named and based on the Freedesktop icon naming standards.
In order for the system to be able to apply and use icons, there must be a standardized practice on naming them.
The Emblem icons are:

  • emblem-default: The icon used as an emblem to specify the default selection of a printer for example.

  • emblem-danger: The icon used as an emblem to specify the directory holds sensitive infromation.

  • emblem-documents: The icon used as an emblem for the directory where a user's documents are stored.

  • emblem-downloads: The icon used as an emblem for the directory where a user's downloads from the internet are stored.

  • emblem-favorite: The icon used as an emblem for files and directories that the user marks as favorites.

  • emblem-important: The icon used as an emblem for files and directories that are marked as important by the user.

  • emblem-mail: The icon used as an emblem to specify the directory where the user's electronic mail is stored.

  • emblem-noread: The icon used as an emblem to specify the directory cannot be read.

  • emblem-photos: The icon used as an emblem to specify the directory where the user stores photographs.

  • emblem-readonly: The icon used as an emblem for files and directories which can not be written to by the user.

  • emblem-shared: The icon used as an emblem for files and directories that are shared to other users.

  • emblem-symbolic-link: The icon used as an emblem for files and directories that are links to other files or directories on the filesystem.

  • emblem-synchronized: The icon used as an emblem for files or directories that are configured to be synchronized to another device.

  • emblem-system: The icon used as an emblem for directories that contain system libraries, settings, and data.

  • emblem-unreadable: The icon used as an emblem for files and directories that are inaccessible.

Other ones in addition to the default ones above include:

  • emblem-camera
  • emblem-certified
  • emblem-desktop
  • emblem-multimedia
  • emblem-ok
  • emblem-new
  • emblem-package
  • emblem-people
  • emblem-personal
  • emblem-pictures
  • emblem-presentation
  • emblem-question
  • emblem-sound
  • emblem-trash
  • emblem-urgent
  • emblem-dropbox-syncing
