A given name is a string of up to 31 characters. The legal characters in a given name are A-Z, 0-9, _, and $. The first character must be a letter from A-Z, and the last character cannot be _ or $. The DMU translates all lowercase letters to uppercase. For example, SALES and CDD$TOP are legal given names. S{L?S, however, is not a legal given name because it contains the illegal characters { and ?.
