Synthesis failing when using AOC compiler

I am trying to synthesize an OpenCL kernel. Building for emulation succeeds. When I try to compile for FPGA, the process fails with an error (16045): Instance "X" instantiates undefined entity "Y", along with multiple "Can't elaborate user hierarchy" errors. However, the entity it is looking for is actually defined in a subfolder of the build directory that AOC created. Any ideas what might be happening?

Update: I solved the issue, it turned out to be an issue with the kernel name's format as @KennyT_Intel​ suggested in his answer bellow.
