Custom Field names - restrictions on naming policy

is there a summary anywhere of what rules govern the name you can give for a new custom field?  I seem to hit a problem when for example wanting to create a custom title field "RP_title".  It does not like that so saves it as "RPTitle".  When I go to import a CSV file I copy the shortname and request that it imports "profile_filed_RPTitle".  However it refuses to import saying "profile_field_rptitle is not a valid fieldname".
