Animator component isn't created and no exception is thrown when creating an animation for GameObject with certain invalid names
How to reproduce:
1. Open any project
2. Create a new Cube GameObject and rename it to "Cu/be"
3. Open the Animation view and select the "Cu/be" GameObject
4. Press "Create" in the Animation view and save it
Expected results: An exception should be thrown letting the user know about invalid characters in the name of the animation
Actual results: Animator component and Animator Controller aren't created and no exception is thrown
Reproducible with: 5.6.5p4, 2017.1.3p3, 2017.2.2p3, 2017.4.1f1, 2018.1.0f1, 2018.2.0a9
The following names also cause the issue:
(the name only contains spaces)
.xxxx(begins with a period)
xx/xx(contains forward slash anywhere but the beginning of the name)
xx\xx(contains forward slash anywhere but the beginning of the name)

Resolution Note:
This is an edge case, which will also cause a bunch of problems across different Unity APIs which use transform paths to resolve objects. Fixing it is not worth slowing down the Animation Window to protect against this edge case
