Hi, the correct name for your functional is B3LYP-V1R (case-insensitive), the documentation is not correct. The "full name" for this functional doesn't work and should not be used. The full names were based on short (four letters) keywords for exchange, correlation, gradient corrections to exchange, gradient corrections to correlation, but there is no way to fit all the 1001 available functionals with a few four-letter labels so it is better to stop using this logic. Note that there is no "b3lypv1r" correlation label (code Modules/funct.f90, lines 345 ff) and also x3lyp correlation label is missing
