can't get past first step of first python code challenge

I've tried this about a hundred times, and I can't get it right. I even went back and took the food variable from the video and just modified to call it name with my name- 

name = input("Renee")

This is the first step of the first code challenge, so there's not a lot I can be missing here....help?

Hi Renee,

All you have to do there is assign your name to the name variable.

name = "Renee"
