I already sent an email related to double quotes in result tables. See the
email hereunder.
In order to get a result table without the double quotes for all texts, I use
the patch enclosed in my email and add the ":results noquotes" header
parameter.
In your example, I would get the following result:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+srcname: thetas()
#+begin_src shell :results noquotes
cd r && ls theta*
#+end_src
#+results: thetas
| theta-1.csv |
| theta-2.csv |
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Is this what you need?
Here's the email I sent a few days ago. It contains the patch I use to remove
the double quotes when I need it:

Hi,
Often, I find useful that babel could generate result tables without the
double quotes (") enclosing all the text values in the cells.
In order to do that, I added a 'noquotes` option to the :results header
argument.
Here's my patch. As I'm not an elisp expert, please tell me if there's a
better/safer way to do that or maybe that it already exists an option to do
that...
