I'm not sure about that, because the whole row seems to be offset in
his email.  That could be just copy-and-paste sloppiness.  Still,
some sort of non-printing character in the name seems to be indicated,
else he'd not have been able to create another db with name "skynet".

Try something like
        select '"' || datname || '"' from pg_database
to get a clearer view of what's really in there.
