C#7dim is not correct. The standard name is C#m7b5. Not elegant,
but unambiguous as concerns the minor 7th or dim. 7th interval.
It is called a leading tone seventh or a half-diminished 7th.

The symbol is a little "o" like the dim/dim7 but with a 
slash / through it.

Best to avoid all symbols if you can.
