Both UTF8 and UF16 use variable length characters.

Agreed. UTF-16 is a variable length character set. Even M$ agrees that you sometimes need to use a 32bit value (also known as a surrogate pair) to represent a character in UTF-16: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd374069(v=vs.85).aspx
