In JavaScript, variable names cannot start with a number. They need to begin with a letter, an underscore (_), or a dollar sign ($). However, you can use numbers in the middle or at the end of the variable name.
For example, these are valid variable names:
myVariable1variable_2$_value
But these are not valid:
1stVariable123name
Note: If you try to start a variable name with a number, JavaScript will throw a syntax error when you run the code.
