It seems likely to me that the issue here is that the database name
contains some Unicode value that looks like whitespace.

A clue is pretty clear in the pane that shows a CREATE DATABASE command
where the name of the database contains a couple of extra characters; the
name can't be "DDV_TDB_02_S2", as you can see "DDV_TDB_02US_S2" in the
pane. I don't know what the "US" bit is; presumably it is some Unicode
character or characters that do not display elsewhere.

This does not appear to be a bug in PostgreSQL, hence not something that
anybody in the community ought to need to fix.
