Solution 1

If you've literally copied and pasted the code, you have a space before the N in Names.

Please don't post solutions to chat with people, if you want to speak directly to someone use the "have a question or Comment?" or the tiny "reply" button in a comment. The meesages are not always sorted by date, so it can be very difficult to follow the "conversation". Another advantage is, that the person you write a comment to will receive a notification about the message
