Default Name Length

Does anyone know the limitations on unit/animation/whatever names? (ie. [MTNK] vs. [AlliedVehicleGrizzlyMainBattleTankArmedWith110mmAr mourPiercingShellThatMovesReallyFast])

From what I've seen, it seems to be 24-25 characters. Anyone want to confirm this?

I know that long ones, like your second example, don't work, but since I use short ones I don't know what the limit is.

If someone knows the limit, I would be happy to add that information to my site.
