Description

Bucket names cannot, for example, include underscores (see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/awscloudtrail/latest/userguide/cloudtrail-s3-bucket-naming-requirements.html for full naming requirements).

The Bucket name? prompt allows an invalid name but the creation will fail after the Do you want to create a bucket with the above details? prompt with:

botocore.exceptions.ClientError: An error occurred (InvalidBucketName) when calling the CreateBucket operation: The specified bucket is not valid.

Compare validation with the AWS S3 bucket naming requirements linked in the issue; done means invalid names such as those containing underscores are rejected before creation, while valid names can proceed.
