Unit Names in Mega Cams are pulled directly from the single scenarios. To change and get names to stick to your liking you would be required to rename stuff in EVERY scenario! (means load into editor, rename units, save again...)
Leader names are pulled from the core.dat file that is to be found in the particular Mega Cam folder. If you change the leader names in this file, these will then be used instead of the default ones, selected by the Mega Campaign creator. You can load the core.dat file in Freds WaWEditor. File format is the same as a normal scenario *.dat file.
However, I would not recommend to mess with the mentioned mega cam files and any damage that you might cause by "hacking" the files is by your own responsibility![;)]
One of my theories about the "lost leader" bug is a certain incompatibility, caused by possible small differences of the mega campaign core force command structure as set in the core.dat file and the core force composition as is set for each scenario by each single scenario creator. OOB file changes (the standard OOB files in SPWAW, not MegaCam files!) during and after completion of a particular Mega Campaign might play an additinal worsening role. The final effect is that the Mega Campaign save files get corrupted thus showing the odd "...OOB file not found" error, as well as the lost/messed leaders. As said...just MY theory![;)]
