Email Subject Line Help

When reaching out to another analyst at a firm that you were recommended to, what should you put in the subject line? The usual XXX University Student... or should I put something like XXX Recommended I Reach Out. My dilemma is I'm afraid if I do the generic line they won't open my email and actually see the part in the email where I write that I spoke with someone else and were told to reach out. On the other hand I don't know if the other subject line is appropriate/would come across as weird.
