Try to use the following code (I'm editing and paste the full code)

import java.io.IOException;
public class StringTest{

    public static void main(String[] arg) throws IOException{
        String name = "EXAMPLE_MODEL_1"; String actionName = "ListModels";
        String result = toProperCase(name.toLowerCase().replaceAll("_", " "))+actionName;
        result= result.replaceAll(" ","");
        System.out.println(result);

    }
    public static String toProperCase(String theString) throws java.io.IOException{
        java.io.StringReader in = new java.io.StringReader(theString.toLowerCase());
         boolean precededBySpace = true;
         StringBuffer properCase = new StringBuffer();    
             while(true) {      
            int i = in.read();
              if (i == -1)  break;      
                char c = (char)i;
                if (c == ' ' || c == '"' || c == '(' || c == '.' || c == '/' || c == '\\' || c == ',') {
                  properCase.append(c);
                  precededBySpace = true;
               } else {
                  if (precededBySpace) { 
                 properCase.append(Character.toUpperCase(c));
               } else { 
                     properCase.append(c); 
               }
               precededBySpace = false;
            }
            }

        return properCase.toString();    

    }
}

Use Apache's WordUtil.Capitalize Method.

Apache commons-lang has utility classes that can help you. Below is my idea

  1. convert name to small case
  2. Use String capitalizeFully(String str, char[] delimiters) with delimiter as _
  3. Remove spaces out of result from step 1
  4. concatenate both

Use Guava's CaseFormat 

String result = LOWER_UNDERSCORE.to(UPPER_CAMEL, "EXAMPLE_MODEL_1") + "ListModels";

Combine your partial solution, with the function described here:

What is the simplest way to convert a Java string from all caps (words separated by underscores) to CamelCase (no word separators)?

The name string needs to have the underscores replaced -- you've done that. Before you do that, you need to convert it to title case.

After that, simply concatenate the two strings.

You are using toLowerCase() method so you are getting result like that. Don't use this function.
