But why it should? Although interesting idea :-)

When you register db you specify its PATH and DBNAME
    so you can have disk db as  db22.vdb
    but vserver will know under name "accounting"

And on connect you need specify this name "accounting"


-----
To register db you can use or vstudo or API Vserver.RegisterDatabase()
