NSwag C# DTO generation fails on object arrays with the characters " - "

[tsemer]

We've recently encountered the following exception when trying to generate C# DTOs from a large schema:

System.InvalidOperationException: Error while rendering Liquid template CSharp/Class: 
Index was outside the bounds of the array.

Full stack trace: (click to expand)

System.InvalidOperationException: Error while rendering Liquid template CSharp/Class: 
Index was outside the bounds of the array.
 ---> System.IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was outside the bounds of the array.

The source schema seems to be valid.
I've managed to isolate the root cause to be very specific: Object arrays with the characters - (space dash space).
I've created a minimal repro to help speed up resolution:

                properties:
                  name:
                    type: string
                  previous - owners:
                    type: array
                    items:
                      type: object
                      properties:
                        name:
                          type: string

Removing any of the three characters - from previous - owners makes generation succeed.

Confirmed affected platforms / versions:

• NSwagStudio v14.0.7.0
  --> when using the setting "Generate DTO Types" of either the "CSharp Client" or "CSharp Controller" outputs.
• NSwag.ApiDescription.Client NuGet package v14.0.7
  --> when building the consuming project.

I've tried any configuration parameter I could find including all runtime versions, all class styles and both JSON libraries. All seem to produce this exception.

I'll also add that TS client generation succeeds.

If I can provide any additional info about the running environment please let me know.
