You're confused about the rules for case sensitivity.
postgres=# CREATE DATABASE LabNews_dev WITH OWNER=xyz
ENCODING='UTF8' ;
CREATE DATABASE
This got folded to lower case, since you didn't double-quote the
name. However, most places where you use a database name outside
the context of SQL commands, no such folding occurs --- in particular
not on psql's command line, and IIRC not in pg_hba.conf either.

However I'm now trying to access it using all lower case.
Are you saying that IT'S confused and I should go all lower or use
quotes (") not (')?
Thanks again,
