Access different arrays with similar keys

I have this array

<?php
$themename = "So";
$shortname = "se";

$options = array (
             array( "name" => "the_firstname",
                    "desc" => "The firstname of a person",
                    "id" => $shortname."_the_firstname",
                    "type" => "text",
                    "value" => ""), 

array( "name" => "the_lastname",
       "desc" => "A persons lastname",
       "id" => $shortname."_the_lastname",
       "type" => "text",
       "value" => ""),
     );

foreach($options as $key => $value)
{
   echo $value['id']."<br/>";
}
?>

with similar keys for instance the id key.I would like to access the id value of the first array.

Doing this echo $value['id'][0]."<br/>"; or echo $options['id'][0]."<br/>"; isn't helping.

How can i show the value of the first id?.

echo $options[0]['id']; should do the trick on top level, inside the for loop this should work: $value['id']. You don't need the [0] here, since $value contains the first (0) element inside the $options array.
