Many thanks In advance..

from m in member
select new {
             FULLNAME = String.Concat(m.Firstname+" ", m.secondname)       
}

You can simply use C# string manipulation:

List<string> names =  from m in ctx.members
    select m.firstname + ' ' + m.secondname;

Or use a more elaborate function to handle missing names etc.
