Adding a space when pulling from database?

I'm pulling data from an Access database and need
put a space between two words.
At the moment I have this,

<%=(rs1.Fields.Item("strFirstName").Value)%>
<%=(rs1.Fields.Item("strSecondName").Value)%>

This produces,

FirstNameSecondName   without the space.

<%=(rs1.Fields.Item("strFirstName").Value)%>&nbsp;<%=(rs1.Fields.Item("strSecondName").Value)%>

Displays OK on the page, but isn't search engine friendly.

How can I add the space but still have it optimised?
(Working in ASP)
TIA.
