Dapper or MySql not finding stored procedures that contain a full stop "."

I've got a simple c# console that uses the Dapper ORM to make a call to a local MySql database in order to execute a stored procedure called users.UserCreate.

However, when running the query I get an exception saying

Procedure or function 'UserCreate' cannot be found in database 'users'

But users isn't the database local_db is.

Here an example use:

public virtual Task CreateAsync(User user)
{
        using (var con = new MySqlConnection(_dbConn))
            return con.ExecuteAsync("users.UserCreate", user, commandType: CommandType.StoredProcedure);
}

_dbConn contains the connection string, also stating the name of the database as local_db.

This is what the stored procedure looks like:

DELIMITER $$
CREATE DEFINER=`root`@`localhost` PROCEDURE `users.UserCreate`(IN `@UserId` VARCHAR(128), IN `@UserName` VARCHAR(255), IN `@PasswordHash` LONGTEXT, IN `@SecurityStamp` LONGTEXT)
    NO SQL
INSERT INTO Users
(Id, UserName, PasswordHash, SecurityStamp, EmailConfirmed, PhoneNumberConfirmed, TwoFactorEnabled, LockoutEnabled, DateCreated, DateUpdated, IsDeleted)
VALUES
(@UserId, @UserName, @PasswordHash, @SecurityStamp, 0, 0, 0, 0, CURRENT_DATE, CURRENT_DATE, 0)$$
DELIMITER ;

Is the problem something to do with MySql or Dapper? I use a similar naming convention for stored procedures in SQL Server, also using Dapper, and haven't had this problem before.

I have tried:

• Using "local_db.users.UserCreate"
• Using "local_db.UserCreate"
• Using "UserCreate"

Any ideas?
