The client, server, and IRC protocol all limit the characters that can be used
in a nickname.  The client handles that in the check_nickname() function in
ircaux.c.  According to the IRC protocol and the client, nicknames can only
start with a letter (A through Z) and then the rest of the nickname can be
letters, numbers, or the characters -, [, ], \, `, ^, {, and }.  The channel
name is not limited by the protocol or by the client, as far as I know, but
some servers do limit the characters that can be used in a channel name.
I hope that helps.
