<a name="definitionsName"></a>{name} | [Schema Object](#schemaObject) | A single definition, mapping a "name" to the schema it defines. The following characters are legal in the `definitionsName`: `a-zA-Z0-9.-_\`. All other characters, including extended ASCII characters, are not legal in the `definitionsName`.

```
User
User_1
User_Name
user-name
my.org.User
my\org\User
```
