Your code looks fine to me and I would have expected it to pass the challenge, but it doesn't. It seems it wants you to do this:

name = "Adi"
subject = "Treehouse loves "+ name

The end result is the same. I guess the one benefit of doing it this way is that it takes one less operation to get to the end result.
