No, the reason is another:
test=# create table "Stone"(id serial);
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence "Stone_id_seq" for serial column "Stone.id"
CREATE TABLE
test=*# \d Stone
Did not find any relation named "Stone".
test=*# \d "Stone"
Table "public.Stone"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+---------+------------------------------------------------------
id | integer | not null default nextval('"Stone_id_seq"'::regclass)
You have to use the " if the table-name contains upper-case characters.
