Mailchimp is not receiving firstname and last name

I'm using Mailchimp api to automatically populate a list.

<label class="ime"> </label>
<input class="subscriberequiredField subscribename" id="subscribename" type="text" value="Ime">
<label class="prezime"> </label>
<input class="subscriberequiredField subscribelastname" id="subscribelastname" type="type" value="Prezime">
<label class="mail"> E-mail</label>
<input class="subscriberequiredField subscribeemail" id="subscribeemail" name="subscribeemail" type="text" value="Email">
<input name="submit" type="submit" id="submit" value="SUBSCRIBE">

API:

<?php

    require_once 'mailchimp/inc/MCAPI.class.php';
    // MailChimp API Key
    // MailChimp API Key ARTICLE at http://kb.mailchimp.com/accounts/management/about-api-keys#Finding-or-generating-your-API-key
    $api = new MCAPI('api-key-is-here');
    $merge_vars = array();

    // MailChimp List IDb 
    // MailChimp List ID ARTICLE at http://kb.mailchimp.com/lists/managing-subscribers/find-your-list-id
    $retval = $api->listSubscribe( 'list-id-is-here', $_POST["subscribeemail"], $_POST["subscribename"], $_POST["subscribelastname"], $merge_vars, 'html', false, true );

?>

For some reason the $_POST["subscribename"] and $_POST["subscribelastname"] are not getting through to the list. The API Key and List ID is correct.

Why is this happening?

You have to put it in input name. Currently you have it only as class and id.

For example:

<input class="subscriberequiredField subscribename" name="subscribename" id="subscribename" type="text" value="Ime">

<input class="subscriberequiredField subscribelastname" name="subscribelastname" id="subscribelastname" type="type" value="Prezime">
