Stupid java question

Yes I know I should be programming in Lisp. Yes java sucks. I'm a noob. OK.

I just want to know, how do I read a String from Scanner?
Like suppose I have

Scanner keyboard = new keyboard(System.in);
System.out.println("What is yo name?");
//Is it something like
//String name = keyboard.nextString ?
I've only ever used scanner for numbers so I'm a bit lost here.

Actually, it's that I refuse to believe there are people out there who like Java I'm sure there are some humans that like Java, but I don't consider them people
