This sounds like drop-down combo box, but I suspect it's not going to work too well with a JComboBox when you need to change the list contents with every character typed (problems getting responses, re-paint flickering, changes of focus...). So I would have a JTextField with a JList positioned underneath it. You can have a TextListener on the JTextField's Document so you can respond to each character as it's typed and update the list as required.
AutoComplete(d) JComboBox/JTextField/JFormattedTextField
