This will create a typeglob with an illegal subroutine name - sub names may not start with a digit. You can do that, but the sub can not be called directly by name: 

$SUB = "1Foo";
*$SUB = sub {print "$SUB!\n"};
1Foo();
Bareword found where operator expected at -e line 3, near "1Foo"
        (Missing operator before Foo?)

To call that weird sub, you'd have to do 

$SUB = "1Foo";
*$SUB = sub {print "$SUB!\n"};
&{"1Foo"};
__END__
1Foo!
