I really don't know what this challenge is wanting. Am I the only one that finds the prompts for these challenges somewhat vague?
// I have imported java.io.Console for you. It is a variable called console.
String fristName = console.readLine("What is your name? ");

"Add a variable to store a user’s first name using console.readLine. Make sure the variable is the camel cased representation of "first name"."

Console console = System.console();
Then you may just need to correct the spelling on firstName.

// fix typo: fristName ==> firstName
String firstName = console.readLine("What is your name? ");
