Is it possible to name a primary key (composite) primary key rather than
have pg default to table_name_pkey??

I tried something like

primary key pkey_table_short_form_name (a,b,c)

but it didnt' work.


Give this a shot:

CONTRAINT pkey_table_short_form_name PRIMARY KEY (a,b,c)

That's not really clear from the top of the CREATE TABLE docs but there's an example at the bottom that shows it.
