Re-reading "fossil help tag", I think you need to use the --raw option.
Also, for the new branch and sym- tags, you need the --propagate option.

So, maybe try:

     fossil tag cancel --raw  'branch' 53c9207df8 ramo
     fossil tag cancel --raw sym-trunk 53c9207df8
     fossil tag add --raw --propagate  'branch' 53c9207df8 ramo
     fossil tag add --raw --propagate  'sym-ramo' 53c9207df8
