Getting the utf8 bytes is:

string name = "عبود";
byte[] utf8 = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(name);
var hex = BitConverter.ToString(utf8);
hex = hex.Replace("-", "");
Console.WriteLine(hex); // D8B9D8A8D988D8AF

What you do with those is up to you; there's zero chance that a hex string was rendered with the replacement character (aka �), so: you're doing something else that we can't see. Maybe show us what you're doing with the value once you have it.
