Module name pattern

[tim-bezhashvyly]

Currently according to Magento/Framework/Module/etc/module.xsd the pattern for module name is the following:

 [A-Z]+[a-z0-9]{1,}_[A-Z]+[A-Z0-9a-z]{1,}

Which means neither package name nor module name can not contain from caps only or even have a camel case. Is there any reason for this?

@tim-bezhashvyly, Thank you for the question! I cannot answer it myself, but will forward your question to someone from the architects. I will then provide you with their response.

@tim-bezhashvyly, here is the response I got from the team:

The module name could be completely capitalized.
The module name and the package name could be camel case, provided that they start with a capital letter.

I made a change to the code so that the module and package could be completely capitalized

I guess this completely answers your question. We are closing this issue now.

Thank you for reporting it to us!

I have a module name which does not work during DI and other function calls like controller & actions.

Module Name: ABCDElephant

This does not give any error instead it just doesn't work properly like other modules
And due to this issue I had to rename it to Abcd

But the Solution Architect made it a mandate to rename it back to ABCDElephant and now I am stuck that what shall I do.
