In MTW, you never see any units with their captain's name in their unit name. For example, you'd have kataphraktoi guarding Emperor Constantine IV, but not Emperor Constantine IV's Kataphraktoi.

Some ideas for unit names:

Calmormene Cavalry
A fast medium type

Calormene Taarkans
The best elite (heavy) cavalry available to the Calormenes.

Calormene Foot Soldiers
Elite Heavy Spearmen

Calormene Skirmishers
Lightly armoured, armed with bow and sword, poor morale peasant levies

Tisroc's Bodyguard
Small Elite Heavy Cavalry unit

Telmarine Infantry
Medium armoured Spearmen

Telmarine Guardsmen
Heavy Infantry with polearms

Telmarine Archers
Basic archers

Telmarine Cavalry
A basic light cavalry, dark ages or feudal western european in appearance as with other Telmarine units.

Archenlander Royal Cavalry
Bodyguard unit of medium cavalry

Archenlander Cavalry
Medium cavalry with sword and bow

Warriors of Archenland
Levied Soldiers, armed with spears, and short swords

Narnian Royal Cavalry
Bodyguard unit of medium cavalry

Narnian Centaurs
Centaurs should always be faster than horses, but unarmoured. Their speed and attack would be better than their armour and defense when compared to cavalry. (try to avoid armoured centaurs if you can, the centaurs would have disdained the use of armour, or even clothing, a buckler may be acceptable.)

Narnian Centaur Archers
As above, with bows

Dwarven Infantry
Solid, very defensive with round shields and axes.

Satyrs
I think these would need to be the Narnians Slingers, light and fast moving

Leopards, Lions, etc
These sorts of animals would need to be a lot more than attack dog clones, as they'de be thinking, and speaking beasts. They would behave like a normal unit. I suppose they would need to be a "cavalry" type. I would put the Leopards below the centaur though, and the Lions above. The Lions would probably have to be the best "cavalry", though in smaller numbers.

Black Dwarf Infantry
Solid, very defensive with round shields and axes, worse morale than other dwarfs, though better armour.

Hags
Finally you can do something with the the German Screeching women's screaming battlecry! They would be armed with knives only and would operate in small units, they'd need to be quite nasty, and be able to hide in the grass.

Minotaurs, would have to be very tough, like facing elephants in battle but worse, they would have a chance of running amok. There armour and defense should be good to represent "no sense and no feeling".
