Looking at the PDB documentation, I see no explicit statement that they are *not* allowed. This page http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/docs/format/pdbguide2.2/part_76.html gives the 'standard' atom naming conventions, but these seem only to apply to atoms in amino acid residues, not to ligands or other het-groups. The example I gave was from heme; here, the standard naming for the four nitrogens at the centre of the pyridoxal ring seems to be " N A", " N B", " N C" , " N D".
