Compare with:

classify()

Create a class name from a plural table name like Rails does for table names to models. Note that this returns a string and not a class. (To convert to an actual class follow classify with constantize.)

"egg_and_hams".classify # => "EggAndHam"
"posts".classify        # => "Post"

Singular names are not handled correctly.

"business".classify # => "Busines"
