Assuming that Column A contains the first name and Column B the last
name...

=A1&" "&B1

OR

=B1&", "&A1

....depending on your preference.

Hope this helps!

If you want FirstName LastName and the first names are in Column A and the
Last Names are in Column B...
Insert a new column to the right of Column B and put this formula in the
first cell:
=A1&" "&B1
Copy it down for all the names.
Then, copy the new list and Edit | Paste Special | Values.
If you want LastName, FirstName, the formula would be:
=B1&", "&A1
