Re-asking here as I never got a response in <#C84L4E3N1|general>.  I’m also seeing this issue when attempting to init a new project:
```
$ pulumi new aws-typescript
This command will walk you through creating a new Pulumi project.

Enter a value or leave blank to accept the (default), and press &lt;ENTER&gt;.
Press ^C at any time to quit.

project name: (my-project) &lt;org&gt;/my-project
Sorry, '&lt;org&gt;/my-project is not a valid project name. A project name may only contain alphanumeric, hyphens, underscores, and periods.
```

This looks like <https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/2822>

Until that is fixed (hopefully very soon - feel free to upvote) - the easiest is probably to `pulumi stack init &lt;org&gt;/&lt;stack&gt;`  after the `pulumi new`.

Note that the other question you asked was about `pulumi stack rename` - looks like perhaps the same problem exists there?  I'll add a note on that to the issue.

Thanks!  `stack init` worked after `pulumi new`.
