How do you name this ester?

Have attached the image below, am thinking methyl-2-methylpropanoate but not sure if correct. Thanks!

Very close. If you remove the first dash between methyl and 2-methyl, then it will be correct (syntax is important!).

You might also see it called methyl isobutyrate.
