Good luck with that.

Most computer nayetems will trim the crap out of that name, the white spaces like space, tab, \r and \n will be gone by the time it's in the database

I really can't even begin to properly explain this because it's just so many layers of intuition. No, you absolutely cannot have a line break in your name. That's not a letter. That said, I'm fully prepared for someone to give me an example of some writing system that uses line breaks for unique purposes apart from spaces.
