Simply put, a role name is an SQL identifier, so it must comply with Firebird's rules for identifiers. If you *really* must have a space in a role name, you'll have to enclose it in double quotes when you define it (that will also make it case-sensitive) AND always include the double quotes when you use it in your applications.

But instead of making a rod for your back (my opinion of quoted identifiers!), why not use the underscore as your separator?
