Description

### Reproduction Steps

```
import cdk = require('@aws-cdk/core');

import { NestedStack } from '@aws-cdk/aws-cloudformation';
import { Queue } from '@aws-cdk/aws-sqs';

export class CdkFifoQueueStack extends cdk.Stack {
constructor(scope: cdk.Construct, id: string, props?: cdk.StackProps) {
super(scope, id, props);

new MyNestedStack(this, 'NestedStack');
}
}

export class MyNestedStack extends NestedStack {
constructor(scope: cdk.Construct, id: string) {
super(scope, id);

new Queue(this, 'MyQueue', {
fifo: true
});
}
}
```

[source](https://github.com/cmckni3/cdk-fifo-queue)

MUST USE `cdk deploy`. THE STACK SYNTHESIZES FINE.

### Error Log

CloudFormation error after running `cdk deploy`:

```
The name of a FIFO queue can only include alphanumeric characters, hyphens, or underscores, must end with .fifo suffix and be 1 to 80 in length. (Service: AmazonSQS; Status Code: 400; Error Code: InvalidParameterValue; Request ID: 0079e079-6bf5-5eec-90d9-b6e4eebec170)
```

### Environment

- **CLI Version : 1.19.0**
- **Framework Version: 1.19.0**
- **OS : macOS**
- **Language : TypeScript**

Research direction

Start with the Queue and NestedStack entry points shown in the reproduction, then run the provided cdk-fifo-queue example with cdk deploy rather than relying on synthesis alone. Compare the generated deployment behavior with the reported FIFO-name error; done means the nested FIFO queue deploys successfully without requiring an explicit name.
