Note:

Oracle does not recommend using identifiers for Oracle Database object names that must be quoted. While the use of quoted identifiers may be valid as names in some command-line tools or in SQL statements, such as CREATE DISKGROUP "1DATA", the names may not be valid when using other tools that manage the object. For more information about naming Oracle Database objects, refer to Oracle Database SQL Language Reference.
