You're almost done with the challenge the problem is that the method should be in PascalCase it should look like this Console.ReadLine(); also the Method you called returns a string, you can read it from the documentation. Then initialize the firstName to the return value of the ReadLine() method like this firstName = Console.ReadLine(). I hope it helps :)
