In SilverBullet every page or document has a name. Names are (currently) unique, meaning no two pages or documents can share the same name.

Rules

Names must also follow certain rules:

• Names cannot be empty
• Names cannot start with a ., ^ nor /

• Names cannot contain the characters |, @ or #
• Names cannot contain the sequences [[ or ]]
• Names cannot contain one or two . enclosed by a combination of the start/end of the name or /
• Names cannot contain //
• Names cannot end in .md (See Paths#Relation to names section)

• (Names are case-sensitive and contrary to most filesystem, / is allowed)

Valid Examples

• “foo”
• “this/is/a/page/name”
• “this/.../is/also/a/page”
• “this/is/a/document.png”

Invalid Examples

• “foo@bar”
• “.foo”
• “foo//bar”
• “foo/../bar”
