Actually it should be obvious.  Name is a variable
name and value is a variable value.  A variable name
can't have a space in it.  Imagine if you wrote:

$First name = "Jim";

Of course you would get a syntax error.  So PHP
helpfully replaces any invalid characters in the
variable name, such as spaces or dots, with
underscores.

Answer is equally obvious, never use a "name=" with a
space in it, call it "FirstName" instead
