Arrays in Java aren't dynamic, like collection classes. If you want a true collection that supports dynamic addition and deletion, use ArrayList<>. If you still want to live with vanilla arrays, find the index of string, construct a new array with size one less than the original, and use System.arraycopy() to copy the elements before and after. Or write a copy loop with skip by hand, on small arrays the difference will be negligible.
