Hi Dan,
I noticed that get_name doesn't diagnose an empty name properly.
Instead, it says it must not be numeric only.
Give a sensible diagnostic for an empty name.
Even though the code now detects an empty name early, don't let
subsequent tests for digit-only and non-alphanumeric names match
on an empty name.
