You could try Lisp or Forth, both allow MINUS in symbol names.
Other languages do, too, but usually it has to be quoted.
I think many programming language implementations allow Unicode (or, at
least, UTF-8!) in names. Apart from Lisp and Forth, Perl (with "use utf8;")
and Tcl allow them too (judging from some simple tests I did) and I'm sure
many others do as well.
