where do I set the database name?

From the compose section:

    image: postgres:10
    environment:
      - POSTGRES_DB=postgres

Or try --db-name from command line.

If they updated/added this, they should also update the environment variable section on dockerhub.

He was refering to postgres, Odoo does not offer a simple setting for that. For a possible solution/hint see: https://github.com/odoo/docker/issues/394

example

version: '3.1'
services:
  web:
    image: %%IMAGE%%:17.0
    depends_on:
      - mydb
    ports:
      - "8069:8069"
    environment:
      - HOST=mydb
      - USER=odoo
      - PASSWORD=myodoo
    command: odoo -d customdb
  mydb:
    image: postgres:15
    environment:
      - POSTGRES_DB=postgres
      - POSTGRES_PASSWORD=myodoo
      - POSTGRES_USER=odoo

note that POSTGRES_DB must be set to postgres and then Odoo will create the database and populate if needed.

if you are connecting to an existing database then it may not be needed.
