You need an initializer. Though it works on the challenge without as well.

struct Person {
    let firstName: String
    let lastName: String

    init(firstName: String, lastName: String) {
        self.firstName = firstName
        self.lastName = lastName
    }

    func fullName() -> String {
      return "\(firstName) \(lastName)"
   }
}

let aPerson = Person(firstName: "Nicholas", lastName: "Richardson")
let myFullName = aPerson.fullName()
