doing.
Names, when quoted, always use double-quotes. For simple names the quotes
are optional but if omitted then the provided value is case-folded to lower
case. Thus: ColumnName =3D> columnname.
In order to use special characters (spaces, symbols, leading digit) you
must use double-quotes.
When using double-quotes the case of the supplied value is preserved.
"ColumnName" =3D> "ColumnName"=E2=80=8B
The quotes are not part of the identifier but are only used during
parsing. Thus:
=E2=80=8BColumnName and "columnname"=E2=80=8B represent the same name.
