Can you run the file name with $?

Question

I haven't even considered this before, but one of my clients is trying to name a file starting with $; $ Template.php.

Is this allowed?

I would like to give him a reason, if this is not allowed?

Thank!

It depends entirely on which file system you are using. You can run the file name with $on all the major file systems that I know about - FAT, FAT32, NTFS, ext2, ext3, ext4, ... (My experience with file systems is actually quite limited. Interesting.)
