Scheme/Guile

You could probably build a (letter, length) => combination-count mapping pretty quickly for part 3, but dealing with overlap in the input elements seems like a pain if handled this way.

There's probably a good solution hiding in here, but this ain't it. I originally went for the combinatoric approach for part 3, but it was giving me an answer that turned out to be out by 8, so brute force came to the rescue.

Even after 20 years in "nicer", "safer", "more modern" languages ... I still miss Lisp. It's the only language that makes me feel like I'm sculpting in clay, instead of carving stone (Haskell) or laying bricks (Java) or building with Lego (Python). Sure, sometimes the clay comes out kind of lumpy, but that's part of the experience.

Part 3 is a recursive solution with caching (memoization).

  if (prefix.len, prefix[^1]) in memo: return memo[(prefix.len, prefix[^1])]

  for ch in rules.getOrDefault(prefix[^1]):
    if prefix.len + 1 >= range.a:
      inc result
    result += allNames(prefix & ch, rules, range)

  memo[(prefix.len, prefix[^1])] = result

  let (names, rules) = parseInput(input)

    if name.isValid(rules):

  let (names, rules) = parseInput(input)
  for ni, name in names:

      result.intVal += ni + 1
