Good afternoon:
Thank You for help.

I'm sure there is a practical limit but I've never run up against it
personally. File name length is a matter of media formatting, not the
underlying operating system. EXT4 for example has a 255 character name
length limit.

There are different formats that can be used to burn optical media. All
have different length limits. What may be of more importance is some
formats may not be readable by all operating systems. This is an
extension that allows more file flexibility than standard ISO9660 does:
