Tell us what’s happening:
Describe your issue in detail here.
This step has really got me confused. I get the name attribute, but I don’t get where it wants the name attribute used. Is the name attribute that they are wanting different from the name that was used in the input tags? For example, the first name box. In the input it has a name=“first-name”, is that not a unique name? Does it need to be something different from that? And where should this unique name be inserted in the code?
