<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">You can’t have & in feature type names or attribute names in WFS because they are defined in the XML schema to be “QName”. The prefix and LocalPart are of type
NCName <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QName" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QName</a> and from

<p class="MsoNormal">The practical restrictions of NCName are that it cannot contain several symbol characters like

<code><span style="font-size:10.0pt">$</span></code>, <code><span style="font-size:10.0pt">%</span></code>,

<code><span style="font-size:10.0pt">;</span></code>, whitespace characters or different parenthesis.
