From:

   (info "(elisp) Symbol Type")

   "A symbol name can contain any characters whatever.  Most symbol names
    are written with letters, digits, and the punctuation characters
    ‘-+=*/’.  Such names require no special punctuation; the characters
    of the name suffice as long as the name does not look like a number.
    (If it does, write a ‘\’ at the beginning of the name to force
    interpretation as a symbol.)  The characters ‘_~!@$%^&:<>{}?’ are less
    often used but also require no special punctuation.  Any other
    characters may be included in a symbol's name by escaping them with a
    backslash.  In contrast to its use in strings, however, a backslash in
    the name of a symbol simply quotes the single character that follows the
    backslash."

There is more in that subsection of the chapter on Lisp data types.
