The name gets folded to lower case without the quote so I suspect what 
is happening is that you are not quoting the name in the nextval call 
correctly. This works:

SELECT nextval('"Uqn7"');

To avoid having to use the double quotes at all, stick to names that 
aren't keywords, and are lower case only, optionally including numbers or _
