From http://mysql.com/doc/C/R/CREATE_DATABASE.html

  6.5.1 CREATE DATABASE Syntax

  CREATE DATABASE [IF NOT EXISTS] db_name

  CREATE DATABASE creates a database with the given name. Rules
  for allowable database names are given in section 6.1.2 Database,
  Table, Index, Column, and Alias Names. An error occurs if the
  database already exists and you didn't specify IF NOT EXISTS.

Did you even check the on-line manual?
