Naming Sub-Generals

I'm creating a campaign that will be used to record a YouTube series and so far everything is working well other than the naming of the sub-generals. I can name the CinC of both armies. Is there a way to over-ride the sub-general names as well?

EDIT:
I should point out, this is in the campaign generation, not the scenario design.
In TEXT1.txt I have IDS_GENERALn, "Name",
And in CustomCampaign.txt:
...
GENERAL1 n 1
...

But it looks like I can only add one name.
It would be great if there was a pool of names that could be edited to be chosen from randomly.

Yes, currently you can only name the C-in-C and the SG names are randomly generated from the appropriate list of names. I will add adding named SGs to the custom campaign wishlist.
