Can you attach an image of the structure or something ? And in what context you have come across this.

1,2-Dimethylpropane is the same as 2-methyl butane.

 

2-Methyl butane is the correct name since you name some from the longest chain of carbons in the molecule (in this case its 4 so you use butane)
