Java provides no character escaping in identifiers. You can only do that using Java reflection:

Kotlin:

class MyClass {
    fun `some random function name`() { }
}

Java:

MyClass c = new MyClass();
c.getClass().getMethod("some random function name").invoke(c);

Or cache the Method returned from the getMethod() call. Or use method handles.
