Comment:

 It's not a 61 character limit, it's a problem because you're using "name"
 which is used elsewhere in Wordpress.

 When making your own form like this, the best course of action is to
 prefix all your form field names with some unique string, like "mcf-" (my
 contact form) or something else. This prevents your form variables from
 interfering with Wordpress's own form variable checks.

 Change the variable "name" to anything else (mcf-name, for example) and
 your form will probably work.
