Server name starts with a number a problem?

Can I name a server with a number first?

I thought I've read over the years this is a bad idea for some reason. I've
got Server 2003 AD with some Windows Server 2000 member servers, too.

Thanks!

I've never done it myself, but I don't know of any reason you can't.
