+## Project name and Azure resource naming
+
+When you initialize a new or existing project, the project name is set in `azure.yaml`. The project name serves as a prefix for Azure resource names created during the provisioning process. By adhering to the validation rules, you ensure that generated Azure resource names will also be valid.
+
+In Bicep or Terraform templates, the project name is often used as a base for constructing resource names, combined with the environment name and other elements. For example:
+
+```bicep
+var resourceToken = '${name}-${environmentName}'
+```
+
+Where `name` refers to the project name and `environmentName` is the name of your `azd` environment.
+
+## Project name validation rules
+
+When using `azd init` to initialize a project or when creating a new project name in the `azure.yaml` file, the following validation rules are applied:
+
+| Rule | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| Allowed characters | Project names can include lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens only. |
+| Starting character | Project names must start with a letter. |
+| Ending character | Project names must not end with a hyphen. |
+| Length | Project names must be between 1 and 58 characters long. |
+| No consecutive hyphens | Project names cannot contain consecutive hyphens. |
+
+These validation rules ensure that your project name will be compatible with the naming requirements of Azure resources and prevent service packaging failures during deployment.
