AFAIK, you can use whatever you want if you double-quote it.
test=# create database "hyphen-test";
LOG: transaction ID wrap limit is 2147484134, limited by database
"test"
CREATE DATABASE
test=# \c hyphen-test
You are now connected to database "hyphen-test".
Note that this is the SQL command, rather than another command such
as the createdb or createuser client apps or psql. For example, \c
works without the quotes.
