I don't see any code to handle the 13th character in names. Some clarification would be nice, do we really want allow a 13th character limiting it to one of the first 16 characters in charmap? Seems like these 4 bits would be reserved instead.

So, are names then limited to 12 characters?

eosc transfer eos initaaaaaaaaaaaaa 13
10 assert_exception: Assert Exception
len <= 13:

Should this limit be enforced and represented in the unit test?

test_types::string_to_name()
WASM_ASSERT( eos::string_to_name("mlkjihgfedcba55") == N(mlkjihgfedcba14) , "eos::string_to_name(mlkjihgfedcba14)" );

@elmato If I'm reading this correct, looks like the number suffix is changing and the length is beyond 12 chars.. Looks like it is testing that you can go past the limit and the suffix is ignored. Still seems like an error should be thrown if it is greater than 12 chars.

We want to be able to express the full range of 64 bit numbers.

Ok .. So given '.abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz12345'[16] == 'p' and that "valid" and "invalid" below are length 13, is this true?

valid: aaaaaaaaaaaap
invalid: aaaaaaaaaaaaq

wait .. never mind .. I see what your saying. it would have to be like this:

valid: 555555555555p
invalid: 555555555555q

So 13 is a good choice then, this would be a very unusual name.. I'll close for now. :) .. thank you
