Subject line when being referred

What should I put in the subject line if I am being referred by someone? In this case I am being referred by an MD of a different firm and he suggested i use his name when emailing the second firm. I am asking this as being an MD he must receive 100s of similar emails from candidates and he might not even open it up.
