Can I use DDS to create an SQL table name

I looked for an SQL group to post this to but did not see one so I'm going
to post it here.

I need to create a file on the iSeries using DDS that has both a physical
file name and an alias name (not sure that is the right term). Basically I
need to reference it as "INVNBR" in RPGLE FSpecs and "INVOICE_NUMBER_TABLE"
when using SQL.

Is there any way to do that with DDS?

By the way, creating the file via DDS was a mandate from a dinosaur that
refuses to learn SQL.
