$scope.name = name;
$scope.contact = contact;
Its throwing error for contact is because there is no global contact variable in your app, but if you go to console and type name.. there is a global variable name which equals "" so it does not throw error.
If you replace $scope.name with any other variable, it would throw error for that. Its all because name is global which equals empty string.
A fiddle where it throws for age instead of contact.

Now in the second fiddle if you go to console and type name, you would see its declared global.

Do not give name as name for a global variable as it denotes window.name because,
window.name gets/sets the name of the window.
For that reason, its never undefined and so the $scope will accept it
