You have an error ;-)
Compare the strings in ther WHERE-clause. An example:
test=# create table no_dupes (id int, name text);
CREATE TABLE
test=*# commit;
COMMIT
test=# insert into no_dupes select 1, 'Andreas' where not exists (select id,
lower(name) from no_dupes where id=1 and lower(name)=lower('Andreas'));
INSERT 0 1
test=*# insert into no_dupes select 1, 'Andreas' where not exists (select id,
lower(name) from no_dupes where id=1 and lower(name)=lower('Andreas'));
INSERT 0 0
test=*# select * from no_dupes ;
id | name
----+---------
1 | Andreas
(1 row)
test=*# insert into no_dupes select 1, 'Andreas' where not exists (select id,
name from no_dupes where id=1 and lower(name)=lower('Andreas'));
INSERT 0 0
test=*# select * from no_dupes ;
id | name
----+---------
1 | Andreas
(1 row)
test=*#
Andreas
