The name of a Content Object is checked by a Regular Expression: [\\p{Alnum}_-]+[\\p{Alnum}_.+\\-]*

Here an example of an utility class

package cms.utils;

import java.util.regex.Pattern;

public class CmsUtils {

    private CmsUtils(){}

    private static final Pattern CMS_NAME_FORMAT = Pattern.compile("[\\p{Alnum}_-]+[\\p{Alnum}_.+\\-]*");

    public static boolean isContentObjectNameValid(String name) {
        return CMS_NAME_FORMAT.matcher(name).matches();
    }
}

Answers to: what are the illegal character for CMS name ?
