I've also made a small program that can read someone's name (spaces not allowed) and print it out:
Program Hello
character (len = 20) :: name
print *, 'What is your name?'
read *, name
print *, 'Hello, ', trim(name), '!' !trim() is used to remove any trailing space after the useful part of the name
End Program Hello
