Surname = str(input("Please tell us your surname: "))
except EOFError as q:

print("Hello",forename,Surname) #tells us full name which was inputted

else:

hru(str)
hru(str)

Answer 1

If EOFError is caught before the forename is entered, that would explain why forename is not defined. If you're running in Sololearn's Code Playground remember to specify all inputs in the dialog that shows after hitting Run. For example,
John
Smith
good

When I run it, I get an error that "ocul" is not defined. I don't get the error you mentioned unless I leave the inputs blank.

Answer 2

What are the inputs that give the error ? I got an error but nothing like that
