It doesn't have to.... read the PostgreSQL docs about DB user names and
unix users names. I think you can give whatever username you want at
the command line and I know I give a username at the connect line in my
php scripts.

If you haven't got the PostgreSQL docs on your Debian system get them, run
the command:

apt-get update

then

apt-get install postgresql-doc

later.....

brew
