I figured out that inserting `hline' works for some languages.  consistent
behavior with ":colnames yes" would be ideal but this solves my problem.

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
  '((one two) hline (1 3) (1 6))
#+END_SRC

Would this work for you?

--8<---cut here---start->8---
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp :colnames yes
 '((one two) hline (1 3) (1 6))
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
| one | two |
|-+-|
|   1 |   3 |
|   1 |   6 |
