I believe it's only letters and a select few special characters that can go into a name. Don't remember the exact rules on it, but I know numbers are taboo. Quotes are also taboo, but hyphens are acceptable.

No numbers.
Watch out for "hidden" naughty words in perfecty innocent words "A$$ault cannon".
Watch out for "hidden" character names in words like the "elepHANt gun".
Roman Numerals are ok though so numbering shouldn't be a problem.
Of couse 214 would end up like what? CXIV?

This isn't from an RE part name, but it's probably the best example of unintentional profanity I've ever seen.
I occasionally put the profanity filter on because it's funny. Lowca had a city on Dant where people frequently ran rebel missions. Some guildies were talking about meeting up there and I couldn't figure out why in the world the middle of this city's name was being filtered -then it hit me.The city's name: Sweetwater.
I nearly wet my pants laughing.
