Isn't it NCName only for WCS 2.x and QName for WFS? Think about topp:states.

Ok, how about:
Names must be compatible with their use in OWS service requests and response
documents. For general use, consider using only the characters: upper and
lowercase letters, numbers, dash, underscore and period. Spaces can be
present, but will need to be escaped in URLs.
The wording "consider using" is meant to indicate this is only a suggestion to
avoid possible pain, not a validation rule.
Let me try a (longer) variation, removing spaces from the general rule as they
are not valid for WFS/WCS 2.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Different OGC protocol have different requirements on layer names.
If you want a single rule that will make layer names across protocols, use only
upper and lowercase letters, numbers, dash, underscore and period, and make
sure the name starts with a letter.
If instead you're interested in using only a subset of the protocols, here is a
summary:
* WCS 1.0, 1.1 and WMS pose no limit whatsoever on the layer names, which can
contain pretty much any character
* WFS (all versions) and WCS 2.0 require the layer name you give to GeoServer
to be an NCName, that is, a non colonized name. A NCName cannot contain several
symbol characters like colon, @, $, %, &, /, +, comma, semicolon, whitespace
characters or different parenthesis. Furthermore an NCName cannot begin with a
number, dot or minus character although they can appear later in an NCName.
