      public static String decapitalize​(String property)
      Returns a new String which is the same as the original except the first letter will be lowercase except for some special cases as per JavaBean handling. In particular, if the first two letters are both uppercase, e.g. URL, then no change of case occurs. Originally inspired by the method with the same name in java.lang.Introspector.

      public static String capitalize​(String property)

      Parameters:
      property - the property name to capitalize
      Returns:
      the name capitalized, except when we don't
