Not as far as Mailman is concerned, but list names are also filenames in the file system which your OS may limit, and listname-unsubscribe is the local part of an email address and your MTA may limit that.

2.  Is there a limit as to the number of character one can put in for a member or subscriber of a mailing list?
      e.g "ColsDispatch: GILSON, Nancy; Arts Editor" <ngilson@dispatch.com>

Again, Mailman puts no limit on the length of a user's real_name (display name) nor the length of an email address.
