It goes like this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>HTML Forms</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="index.html" method="post">
<label for="name">"Name:"</label>
<input type="text" id="name" name="user_name">
<textarea id="comment" name="user_comment"></textarea>
<button type="submit">Submit Comment</button>
</form>
</body>
</html>
"label for="name" -> means that the label will be pinned onto a HTML element the "name" property .

Courses Plus Student 17,967 PointsOne issue with your HTML is that you use Name:=. Even if the Name was proper there, it is case sensitive and would need to be lower case. Also, the : is not proper inside the < label > tag. See Nejc's answer for the proper label.
