Need help with code challenge

I just can't seem to figure this one out, have tried everything;

structs.swift 
struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String

    func getFullName(firstName name: String, name1: String) -> Person {


        let fullName = Person(firstName: name, lastName: name1)

        return fullName

    }
}

Hey Zeenia,

The main issue here is the code challenge just wants the getFullName() function, without specified parameters like you provide. Simply using the stored properties in the function while within the struct works. In addition, you're only returning a string of the person's full name, not a type of Person.

func getFullName() -> String {
  return "\(firstName) \(lastName)"
}
