Hi @italomaia-bk, this is due to the markup language approach which mermaid is built upon. But you can give the node another id and still use "end" for its caption text: example in the live editor.

Yeah, I'm using this workaround.
If this limitation is expected and not documented, we might still have an issue.

It should be helpful to have a list in the documentation which includes all the words reserved for syntax for every diagram type.

I submitted a PR for this, but I found that "End" also breaks sequence diagrams.
