I didn't understand why isn't working.

I tested the code on python shell and it worked fine:

name = "FABIO sabino"
subject = "Treehouses loves {}".format(name)
subject
'Treehouses loves FABIO sabino'

Could you help me to understand ?

Thanks in advance, Fábio Sabino

strings.py 
name = "Fabio Sabino"
subject = "Treehouses loves {}".format(name)

should work, as it is the right answer, and it did work for me, when I pasted your code.
