Comparing the error text with source code https://github.com/pypi/warehouse/blob/7c93a28780ea728ac07b51d03a1c6b7db45899d9/warehouse/packaging/services.py#L492-L510 I think "tai64" is explicitly mentioned in a table called prohibited_project_names. Best guess, a spammy or other malicious package was previously uploaded with the same name.
