David is right, C and R stands for column and row respectively. The reason
why my Excel accepted these letters is that I use a national language version
in which O and S are the equivalents of C and R. Using O or S I got the error
message!
And also Mike is right when he misses documentation of this constraint!

David,
That seems sensible and I do get the same error when trying to use R but it
doesn't explain why Stefi doesn't get the error with C.
I'm not sure how authorative this is but there is no mention of this
seemingly undocumented feature here.

You can use R or C if preceded, or followed, by an underscore.

Hi,
Why are C or c invalid names for named ranges on a worksheet?
