Change item in list variable

I seem to have an error replacing an item in a list with an item from another list. Do I need to use remove to take "Treehouse" away from greeting_list (i.e. greeting_list[3]), then use append to replace it with the first item in name_list?

Thank you

greeting_list.py
full_name = "Frederick Douglas Pearce"
name_list = full_name.split()
greeting_list = "Hi, I'm a Treehouse".split()
greeting_list[greeting_list.index("Treehouse")]=name_list[0]
