Make sure that line with name=="Nathan" is not indented. It's hard to
tell from the code there.
Also, I'm thinking that this won't work:
if name == "Nathan":
print "What a great name!"
elif name == ["Madonna", "Cher"]:
because the variable name is a string and not a list. You could try:
elif name in ["Madonna", "Cher"]:
