I'm pretty sure this is something that is not affected by patch version.
In the file directory C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Hearts of Iron IV\common\units\names, you have the lists for names when it comes to Unique Unit names, with ships having been added by Paradox. The ship names work as intended.
However for ground units it does not. I have included the base code here.
When attempting to change the generic name, in the case of the US from 'Mountaineer-Division'
to 'Mountain Division' (historically accurate), the change does not go through to the game.
Nor does adding division names under the 'unique = {}' code ( unique = { "10th Mountain Division" }.
I have no issue setting up my own historical names for every country I play - I did so for HoI3 as I noticed way to many mistakes - but it does not work regardless.
(The generic_patterns I have not been able to find what they entail, or their location, so I do not know if they are functioning or not)

Code:
infantry = {
prefix = ""
generic = { "Strelkovaya Diviziya" }
generic_pattern = "UNIT_GENERIC_NAME_SOV"
unique = {}
}
