Spaces in KML

Greetings!

I'm using

gmt2kml -N- ...

with input data records that look like this:

-88.98636 39.29742 ABCD1 (my location)

The resultant KML file has this:

<name>ABCD1</name>

But what I want is:

<name>ABCD1 (my location)</name>

I tried modifying my input data records to look like the following:

-88.98636 39.29742 ABCD1+(my+location)

-88.98636 39.29742 ABCD1%20(my%20location)

but then, the + or the %20 shows up within the <name> tags,
and thus, on Google Maps.

I also tried:

-88.98636 39.29742 "ABCD1 (my location)"

but this has the same result as having no quotes.

Can anyone provide an answer for how I can get all of the text (with
spaces) to get between the <name> tags??
