I am trying to connect to MySQL hosted on AWS free tier. 

For some reason I am getting an error stating my database is not found. I was wondering what I am doing wrong.

Below is my code along with a picture stating what my database name is on AWS.

```
library(dplyr)
library(dbplyr)
library(pool)

host = "database1.creyniq1gyij.us-east-2.rds.amazonaws.com"
dbname = "database1"
user = "jordan1"
pass = "mysecurepass"

con <-  dbPool(RMySQL::MySQL(), 
                  username=user,
                  password=pass,
                  host=host,
                  port=3306,
                  dbname="database1"
)

Error in .local(drv, ...) : 
  Failed to connect to database: Error: Unknown database 'database1'

```

Here is my amazon screen shot of my database

From @makeshift-programmer answer, I removed dbname in the call and I was able to connect. However, I am not to sure how to create a dbname/schema, so I can start uploading data into the sever.
