a what is the wrong in the description function of a package

I want to build a package in R using R studio

I got this error when pressing on build source package

==> R CMD build CLASS_Projectcompany

During startup - Warning messages:
1: Setting LC_CTYPE failed, using "C" 
2: Setting LC_TIME failed, using "C" 
3: Setting LC_MESSAGES failed, using "C" 
4: Setting LC_MONETARY failed, using "C" 
* preparing 'CLASS_Projectcompany':
* checking DESCRIPTION meta-information ... ERROR
Malformed package name

See section 'The DESCRIPTION file' in the 'Writing R Extensions'
manual.

The content of the DESCRIPTION file is:

Package: CLASS_Projectcompany

Date: 2015-05-23
Author: Marco Deneenii [aut, cre]

It tells you in no uncertain terms

Malformed package name

so I would start with the line 

 Package: CLASS_Projectcompany

and actually check that underscores are permitted. They may not be.
