You can have spaces but you have to escape them:
Morrowind\ Menu\ Theme

Cf. (info "(elisp) Symbol Type"):

   A symbol name can contain any characters whatever.  Most symbol names
  are written with letters, digits, and the punctuation characters
  ‘-+=*/’.  Such names require no special punctuation; the characters of
  the name suffice as long as the name does not look like a number.  (If
  it does, write a ‘\’ at the beginning of the name to force
  interpretation as a symbol.)  The characters ‘_~!@$%^&:<>{}?’ are less
  often used but also require no special punctuation.  Any other
  characters may be included in a symbol’s name by escaping them with a
  backslash.
