How to alias encoding to postgresql

Dear all
  I am a newbie postgresql admin. I use FME GIS Tool to translate mapinfo file to postgis. My problem is the translation tools use encoding of the system as postgis client encoding. (System encoding is "WINDOWS-874-2000"). However postgis client is recognise only encoding name "WIN874". The both is the same but different in name. I try to config the tool to overide encoding manaually but not success. I think it be good if I can add alias encoding to postgresql. How could I add the aliase encoding name to WIN874?

Best Regard,
