Yup.

I think the solution here is to stash the data needed somewhere so that
we don't need to guessing round trip.

The most obvious place to stash the data is in the string itself, so
custom-unlispify-tag-name should just put a 'data text property on the
unlispified string (with the symbol), and then the relevant functions
should use that instead of looking at the buffer text.
