Chet, the sample was run in normal, not POSIX, mode.
So it allows '1a' but disallows '1'. Pretty odd.

Eduardo, the question is about inconsistent, error-prone implementation.
Not about the workarounds.

`1' is not a valid identifier, still:
$ function 1 () { :; }
bash: `1': not a valid identifier
So that is pretty messy..

Andreas, I know it will work with the '-f' flag.
But for others function names, the '-f' unset flag is not required.
Moreover, it seem confronts with Open Group Base Specification.
So I consider it as a bug still.

Hello,
seems like bash allows illegal function names, but refuses to unset them
then:
|$ function 1a () { :; }||
|
|$ declare -f 1a ||
||1a () ||
||{ ||
|| :||
||}||
|
|$ unset 1a ||
||bash: unset: `1a': not a valid identifier
$
GNU bash, version 4.3.48(1)-release (x86_64-s
