Forum member kamemo discovered this problem when creating a custom entry for the Tor browser:

As they discovered, both a space character and a dash "-"
character are invalid. The problem arises because the app-name
gets used as a variable in the bash script. In bash, variable
names should only be a-z, A-Z, 0-9 or an underscore. As far as I
can make out from quick reading of some online posts, even UTF-8
characters are not allowed.
A fix has been committed:
