What will be interpreting your HTML's semantics? I can think of a few options: - If this is part of a series of labeled paragraphs, perhaps you are looking for dl/dt/dd - A heading could indeed be appropriate in some cases - strong is probably most generally what you are looking for. Indeed, https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/semantics.html#the-strong-element uses it in the very first example ("Importance" and the "Example" paragraph after that). - If this is purely a stylistic label, span indeed makes sense.
