I have posted a question on the rails core list asking whether there
is a bug in tableize or whether this is as expected.

You are entirely free to choose controller names and associated routes
as you wish, neither has anything to do with model names. There is
often a 1:1 relationship between models and controllers. You can
therefore allow rails to call the model KnownIp but have the
*controller* and routes as known_ips. Just make sure that in the
controller you reference the model by its actual name (KnownIp).

In addition it is possible to override the table name for a model
using set_table_name in the model. Whether it is valid to have a
model KnownIP in a file known_ip.rb I do not know. Forget about the
model generator and try it and see. Don't forget to remove any old
files of similar names from the models directory.
