I am thinking I am not understanding your question. What is wrong with my current code?

Did I misunderstand the question? I have took two strings and made it a single variable. when try this code in a in a *.py script it works.

name.py
name1 = "Tree"
name2 = "house"
name3 = ("{}{}".format(name1,name2))
print("{}".format(name3))

To pass the code challenge, if nothing else, you have to use the asked-for variable names. After that, though, the challenge wants you to use string concatenation for "Treehouse", so you'll need to use + instead of .format().
