What are you trying to do? ChildAdded is an event and RBXScriptSignal is an object passed back from an event which does not have a Name propertie. User#5423 17 — 7y

ChildAdded passes the object that was added as an arg you can simply use its name? User#5423 17 — 7y

You try to get the name of the event ChildAdded. Thats not possible, you can however give the Child that was added, as an argument in the function like so:

game.Players.LocalPlayer.Backpack.ChildAdded:connect(function(Child)

To fix your script we can simpfully do the following:



Name = script.Parent:WaitForChild("ScrollingFrame")

game.Players.LocalPlayer.Backpack.ChildAdded:connect(function(Child)
    if Name.Text1.Text == "" then
        Name.Text1.Text = Child.Name
    end
end)
