How to remove column name from sqlite query

I have a ArrayList in an activity that comes from a sqlite query in my database activity. I use an Listadapter to view the ArrayList in a listview. That works fine! But,

//ARRAYLIST WORKS!
ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> test = controller .getAllpersons(value1,value2);
//LISTADAPTER WORKS!
ListAdapter adapter1 = new SimpleAdapter(Persons.this, test, R.layout.rowsales,
new String[] { "NamesId", "personfirstname","personlastname }, 
new int[] {R.id.NamesId, R.id.personfirstname,R.id.personlastname});


//DATABASE IS FINE!
public ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> getAllpersons(String value1,String value2) {
    ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> wordList;
    wordList = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>();
    String selectQuery = "SELECT * FROM STUFF WHERE personfirstname IS NOT NULL and Date    BETWEEN '"
            + value1 + "' AND '" + value2 + "'";
    SQLiteDatabase database = this.getWritableDatabase();
    Cursor cursor = database.rawQuery(selectQuery, null);
    if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
        do {
            HashMap<String, String> map = new HashMap<String, String>();
            map.put("personnameId", cursor.getString(0));
            map.put("personfirstname", cursor.getString(1));
            map.put("personlastname", cursor.getString(2));

            wordList.add(map);
        } while (cursor.moveToNext());
    }
    database.close();
    // return contact list
    return wordList;

}

But when I try to create a workbook and save it to my sd what get's printed in the cell is {personfirstname = John, personlastname=doe} I want to print John Doe to the workbook. Can anyone help? FYI I am using Apache POI jar to create a workbook.

for (int i = 0; i < test.size(); i++) {
Row row2 = sheet1.createRow((short) i+3);
c = row2.createCell(0);
System.out.println(test.get(i));
c.setCellValue(test.get(i).toString());
c.setCellStyle(s);
}
