There is.  <init> and <clinit>, for example, are not a valid method
names, as they are used for constructors and class initializers, so
you can't have methods with these names.

Also, names containing `$' are reserved for accessor methods for inner
classes, but you can use them in bytecode.

The JVM does impose restrictions on naming, and that's exactly what
this thread is about.
