In my app I need a way to generate the name of a method based on a
property key. If the key is, e.g. -scaleFactor, and the generated
method name needs to be -displayNameForScaleFactor, how can I reliably
turn "scaleFactor" into "ScaleFactor"? I tried [NSString
capitalizedString] but I get "Scalefactor". Obviously capitalizing an
ASCII string is trivial but I'm not sure that I can assume that
encoding for method names.

There are probably more efficient ways, but brute force should work:

NSRange fc = NSMakeRange(0,1);
NSString* s2 = [[s1 substringWithRange:fc] uppercaseString];
NSString* s3 = [s1 stringByReplacingCharactersInRange:fc withString:s2];

If you need to support pre-10.5, I guess you'll need to make a mutable string for the replacement step.
