How I can get glyphs from a fraktur font and use them as identifiers?
$begingroup$
I would like to use the fraktur-S ($LaTeX$: mathfrak{S}
$mathfrak{S}$; Unicode: "U+1D516" 𝔖) as a variable name in Mathematica, but pasting the Unicode character results in gibberish.
I'm confused because some Unicode characters I paste work just fine as variable names. Does Mathematica support only a subset of Unicode?

Have you tried[GothicCapitalS]
?

That looks like an enlarged version of the lowercase fraktur s (Latex: "mathfrak{s}" $mathfrak{s}$).

@J.M.isslightlypensive Might you know what subset of Unicode Mathematica supports?

I think it supports the range 0000 – FFFF.

From the documentation tutorial/InputSyntax
That the above at most allows four hex digits for a character code restricts Unicode characters to the range 0000 – FFFF.
$endgroup$
$begingroup$
So does that means it is impossible to enter the character that I mentioned?

@J.M.isslightlypensive mentioned that he was able to enter it by typing:d835:dd16
directly in his notebook but I tried the same to no avail... Might it be bc I'm using online version?

@Landon: "using online version" - that may be it; please edit your question to include that information. Also, this is one of those times where a screenshot would be illustrative.
