Trying to use an array value as an SQL insert value - php

Question

Hey guys I am trying to use a value that i got from a previous query in a new one, the value is a string stored in an array, they are the $Name and $Email variables, it looks like this when i var_dump them... string 'nathgold' (length=8) .... I want to use that nathgold as a value in the insert of a new query. I get the error Notice: Array to string conversion in C:\wamp\www\login\post.php on line 30
<?php
include_once('connect-db.php');
session_start();
if(!isset($_SESSION['isLogged']))
{
header("Location: home.php");
die();
}
if (!isset($_REQUEST['MBID'])) exit;
if (!isset($_REQUEST['Parent'])) {
$Parent = 0;
} else {
$Parent = $_REQUEST['Parent'];
}
if (isset($_POST['Title'])) {
$user_info=mysqli_query($connection, "SELECT * FROM usertest WHERE id=".$_SESSION['user']);
$userRow=mysqli_fetch_array($user_info);
$Name = $userRow=['username'];
$Email = $userRow=['email'];
$Title = mysqli_real_escape_string($connection, $_POST['Title']);
$Message = mysqli_real_escape_string($connection, $_POST['Message']);
$CurrentTime = time();
// other filtering here...
$result = mysqli_query($connection, "INSERT INTO mbmsgs (MBID, Parent, Poster, Email, Title, Message, DateSubmitted) VALUES ({$_REQUEST['MBID']}, $Parent, ".$Name.", ".$Email.", '$Title', '$Message', $CurrentTime);");
if ($result) {
echo "Your message has been posted - thanks!<br /><br />";
echo "Back to messageboard";
exit;
} else {
echo "There was a problem with your post - please try again.<br /><br />";
}
}
?>
<form method="post" action="post.php">
Message title: <input type"text" name="Title" /><br /><br />
Message:<BR />
<textarea name="Message" rows="10" cols="40"></textarea><br /><br />
<input type="hidden" name="MBID" value="<?php echo $_REQUEST['MBID']; ?>" />

You to convert $name on a string :
use implode("|",$name);
