This is a nifty script and definitely better than the "Storing a Name" script. Not only does this allow you store a person's name, but it requires the name from everybody and allows them the option to change their name if they want. This script uses a new device, color coding, so if you copy the script, be sure to find out what the different colors mean (found below the script source).

Color coding..


This means you can change the words to fit your page.
