You can use any character, but do not use any of the variant characters to avoid problems with different code pages.

Use the single quotes, or not, depending on the following:

If parentheses, commas, blanks, or semicolons are entered as part of the name, the character string must be enclosed in single quotes.
If a single quote is intended to be part of the name and the entire character string is enclosed in single quotes, use two single quotes together to represent each single quote with the string.
If the first character of the name is a single quote, enter the string within single quotes, with two single quotes entered for the single quote.

Both upper case and lower case characters are accepted and maintained in the case entered.

This keyword is used with:

The commands ADDTO, DELETE, REMOVE, REPLACE, and LIST
The ACID types User, DCA, VCA, ZCA, LSCA, and SCA
MISC3(SDT) authority to ADDTO or REMOVE records or fields in the SDT
MISC8(LISTSDT) authority to list KERBNAME in the SDT
