JavaScript objects greet method

According to other posts this code should work for challenge 1 of 1 in the objects portion of JavaScript Fundabmentals, but does not work for me. Why? Thank you.

var genericGreet = function() { return "Hello, my name is " + this.name; }

  var andrew = {
    name: "Andrew",
    greeting: genericGreet
  }

  var ryan = {
    name: "Ryan",
    greeting: genericGreet
  }

It's asking you to set the 'greet' method, but you wrote 'greeting'
