Description:
I have found out that mysql does not accept a specific format of databasenames - for instance:

CREATE DATABASE 123e456abc;

Does not work, even though the names 'a123e456abc' and '123e456' works, even though there according to the manual is no such limitation to databasenames.

How to repeat:
CREATE DATABASE 123e456abc;

Please do not submit the same bug more than once. An existing
bug report already describes this very problem. Even if you feel
that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely
to be the same. Because of this, we hope you add your comments
to the original bug instead.

Thank you for your interest in MySQL.

Same as Bug #1132 http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=1132
