Wrong, please don't guess.  You can do named virtual hosts just fine 
with SSL.  Each http virtual host should be defined something like:

<VirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80>

While an SSL virtual host will be defined like:

<VirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:443>

Of course, you can only have one named SSL virtual host per IP, so it's 
not really much of a named-based virtual host (beyond the 
configuration, anyways).  Since the OP never revealed his 
configuration, we're just guessing anyways.
