If you name the variable incorrectly it wont pass the check criteria.

(Note -- again camel casing is not compulsory but is a general convention )
for e.g. helloWorld = hello (first word's first letter in lowercase) + World (next word's first letter in uppercase)
Similarly
myFavouriteColor
And as I checked and suggested by Daniel its favouriteColor and not myfavouriteColor ... remove the my and it should be good.
