Capturing synonyms in Designer

I'm trying to capture the design of an database using a DDL. The tables have the form:

CREATE TABLE USERNAME.Tablename ( field DECIMAL(15,4), ....);

When I try to capture the definititin of a SYNONYM:

CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM Tablename FOR USERNAME.Tablename;

I get the following error:

CDS-18010:A Synonym and a Table with the same name "Tablename" have been asked to be created.

The User USERNAME is a User in the database in Designer. How is it possible, that the table Tablename is created for this user in his schema?

Thanks
