Easily add data from database to multidimensional array using php

How can I easily add data from MySQL to a multidimensional array in PHP? I am making a search box and I want to store the first name, and the last name in the array.

Why does not this work.

$result = mysqli_query($db, $sql) or die(mysqli_error());

$data = array();

while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) {
    $data[$row['primary']] = $row['firstname'], $row['lastname'];
}
