Method Proxy Adapter

I have written an addapter that essentially renames a target method by
pre-pending an _ then creates a new method with the originall name that calls
the renamed method

eg:

public String getName(){
return name;
}

gets re-written as:

public String _getName(){
return name;
}

public String getName(){
return this._getName();
}

my adapter creates:

public class TestClass2
{
  private String name = "Test_Class_2";

  public String getName() { return this._getName; } 
  public String _getName() { return this.name;
  }
}

_getName is missing () the brackets - a noob question as to what is wrong? Also
is there a better way to do this ?

public class MethodProxyAdapter extends ClassAdapter {

	private String matchDesc;
	private String matchName;

	public MethodProxyAdapter(ClassVisitor cv, String matchDesc, String
matchName) {
		super(cv);
		this.matchDesc = matchDesc;
		this.matchName = matchName;
	}

	@Override
	public MethodVisitor visitMethod(int access, String name, String desc,
String signature, String[] exceptions) {
		if (matchDesc.equals(desc) && matchName.equals(name)) {
			System.out.println("Method Intercepted desc: " + desc +
" name: " + name);
			String newName = "_" + name;
			createProxyMethod(access, name, desc, signature,
exceptions,newName);
			MethodVisitor visitMethod = super.visitMethod(access,
newName, desc, signature, exceptions);
			return visitMethod;
		}
		return super.visitMethod(access, name, desc, signature,
exceptions);
	}

	private void createProxyMethod(int access, String name, String desc,
String signature, String[] exceptions, String newName) {
		// Honour the original method contract
		MethodVisitor mv = cv.visitMethod(access, name, desc,
signature, exceptions);
		// Write the new name
		mv.visitCode();
		mv.visitVarInsn(Opcodes.ALOAD, 0);
		mv.visitFieldInsn(Opcodes.GETFIELD, "this", newName,
"()Ljava/lang/String;");
		mv.visitInsn(Opcodes.IRETURN);
		mv.visitMaxs(1, 1);
		mv.visitEnd();
	}

}
