Hi Rory

The challenge asked you to make this format

First Name: <String firstName>

meanwhile yours:

hi, my name is <firstName>

You should modify your code into:

// I have imported java.io.Console for you.  It is a variable called console.
String firstName = console.readLine("what is your name?  ");
String lastName = console.readLine("what is your name?  ");
console.printf("First Name: %s\n",firstName);

I hope this will help you to pass the challenge
