The for attribute refers to the value of an id attribute, not a name 
attribute.

That should be something like this:

<label for="choose-first">First Option</label>
   <input type="radio" name="choose" id="choose-first" value="First 
Option" />
<label for="choose-second">Second Option</label>
   <input type="radio" name="choose" id="choose-second" value="Second 
Option" />
