Postgres 15:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/15/sql-keywords-appendix.html

STRING     reserved (can be function or type)     non-reserved           

Postgres 14:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/14/sql-keywords-appendix.html

STRING           non-reserved           

I don't have a 15 instance available, but I would double quoting 
"string" would work.
