How to define an accessor in model where the field name contains a number?

I am trying to define an accessor in my User model for a field which already exists. This field is called address_line_1 in my DB. However because the field name contains a number, I am unsure of how to get Laravel to recognise there is an underscore after 'line.'

Usually to define an underscore, you would camel case but in this case you can't. I have checked the Laravel documentation however this issue is not mentioned. Below is my code currently:

public function getAddressLine1Attribute($value){
    return empty($value) ? '' : decrypt($value);
}

I have also tried the function name getAddress_Line_1Attribute and getAddressLine_1Attribute but this does not work.

How can I get around this?

Laravel 5.7 calls this function to check if the get mutator exists:

 /**
 * Determine if a get mutator exists for an attribute.
 *
 * @param  string  $key
 * @return bool
 */
public function hasGetMutator($key)
{
    return method_exists($this, 'get'.Str::studly($key).'Attribute');
}

'get'.Str::studly('address_line_1').'Attribute' === 'getAddressLine1Attribute'

So it seems your method name is correct.
