Hi there! According to the image you posted, it's either a misunderstanding of the instructions or a typo. The instructions ask you to declare a variable named firstName, but you declared a variable named Firstname. These challenges are very particular. If they ask for a specific variable name or specific thing to be printed or returned then it must match to the letter. This includes capitalization, spelling, punctuation, and even spacing!

Hope this helps! :sparkles:

AHA! thank you so much. Always something small =]
