It is not necessary that the site name should be the same as the namespace name
right ? I can still name my site as # and name my project namespace as MyWiki,
by choosing the third option in the installer(The one that says choose a
separate namespace name). However if I choose to use the project namespace as
same as the sitename, all the restrictions that are forced on the namespace
start to apply on the sitename as well. Also these restrictions on namespaces
tend to replace any violation with a empty string and do not provide the user
with clarity regarding why there sitename is being rejected. But am not sure if
all the namespace restrictions SHOULD apply to the sitename as well or not. I
have written a mail to chad regarding the same and am awaiting his reply on
this.
