The challenge gave you this hint: "Bummer: Ensure you spelled name correctly."

The variable shown here is "Name" (with a capital "N"), but the instructions ask for one called "name" (lower-case "n"). Since Python is case-sensitive, a word with a capital letter is completely different from one with only lower case.

Thanks steven, wasn’t entirely sure if it’s case-sensetive.
