This is called snake case.
This is called camel case.

It hadn't occurred to me that they might have names!

These two are joined by several others in having colloquial names:

Naming convention, multiple-word identifiers

I've seen kebab-case used in Scheme. It is also convenient in domain names, though there are some sound arguments in favor of registering both the hyphenated and non-hyphenated version of a given domain. One reason is that it's hard, in an audio advertisement, to specify the hyphen without making that the most memorable part of the domain.

I certainly try to register hyphenated and non-hyphenated variations of domains names as well as different TLDs depending on the importance of the project. I've been bitten a few times with missing out on a domain!
