I'm sorry I don't know this. But this limitation look a little bit hard. because many application show it's database name directly to user and in this case, using Japanese character in databse name is essential.

Sorry. We recommend that user-visible names be stored in the database info blocks or in a separate record. That's one reason why application names are stored in a tAIN resource rather than shown directly from the DB name. The documentation for the DmCreateDatabase call in the Palm OS SDK reference documents this limitation:
