[wp-hackers] hyphens to differentiate database names for WP in mysql

[Bearcat Şándor]

Folks,

I like to create my wordpress databases with hyphens such as wp-exetermusic
 and wp-mysite.  I have to escape them with backticks when creating them.

Is this a bad practice?
Might some plugins choke on this?
Are underscores or some other thing, better?

Thanks
