By default, identifiers in PostgreSQL are limited to 63 characters,
although that can be changed with a compile-time option:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/interactive/sql-syntax-lexical.html#SQL-SYNTAX-IDENTIFIERS
(Longer identifiers are truncated; it's not an error to write them.)
To be fair, though, the OP did not call out PostgreSQL in particular,
just "most databases."
