Hello there guys im new to the forum and these are my geckos just got them today as a early Christmas gift.and yes I did research them a while back deciding to get a bearded dragon chameleon or leaopard gecko. I went for a gecko.my female is nami and my male is spyro

Welcome to GF and congrats on your new geckos. They look nice and healthy. Two questions:
--it's hard to tell what substrate that is, whether it's sand or repti carpet. If it's sand, consider replacing it with a non-particle substrate. There are many things that work. My favorite is tile. If it's carpet then never mind.

--Do you have the male and female together? If you do, you will be getting eggs at some point and unless you have an incubator and housing for the hatchlings, this may not be a good idea for you.

Good luck with them and happy holiday.

It sand I couldn't change it when I ask to put a carpet but my parent wants to put sand.I am getting a carpet for them soon

They are male and female and I not for sure the lady said you can sex them by there tail size I was gonna check and try to sex them but I couldn't because they might get scare and I don't want them to drop there tail.

P.s when the lady said you can sex them by tails I literally laugh inside of my mind.so yea thanks

By the way should I leave the light on for four hours ?.I was told at the pet store

You shouldn't have a light, light hurts their eyes and can burn their sensitive skin. They are nocturnal, meaning they only come out at night anyways, so lights only bother their natural cycle. Having regular light inside of your house will be more than enough.

And definitely get rid of the sand asap, it will cause problems very quickly if you don't change it
