use ‘as’ might help.

sequenceDiagram
    participant a as leftOfColon#58;rightOfColon
    participant b as leftOfColon2#58;rightOfColon2
    a->>b: hello

@zeerd the UTF-8 character codes work in participant declarations, but they don’t appear to work in the actual sequence part of the diagram (sorry if my jargon is off here). Example: image See above that the participants look good!

image See above that we can’t connect the participants 😢

the mermaid code:

sequenceDiagram
    participant leftOfColon#58;rightOfColon
    participant leftOfColon2#58;rightOfColon2
    leftOfColon#58;rightOfColon->>leftOfColon2#58;rightOfColon2: hello
