Got a problem in importing data from excel sheet

Hi all

I am trying to import data from excel 2010 to sqlserver 2008 r2 through Import wizard i got an error 

TITLE: SQL Server Import and Export Wizard
------------------------------

Column information for the source and the destination data could not be retrieved, or the data types of source columns were not mapped correctly to those available on the destination provider.


`'EERSTE-MAY''12$'` -> [dbo].['EERSTE-MAY''12$']:

     - ''EERSTE-MAY''12$'' is not a valid name.  Make sure that it does not include invalid characters or punctuation and that it is not too long.

Can you please provide me a solution.

Thanks
