So, I'm playing as Muscovy->Russia. At the beginning, Russian armies have generic names (1st army, 2nd army, etc.) But from some recent point (I believe that it was when I completed the collect Yasak mission) the armies have started to be named with less generic names (Russian Imperial Army, Army of Poland, etc.) This is a nice change to me, as I find the generic names for the armies totally uninmersing. However, I would like to know what triggered the new names, so that in other run, I'll be able to trigger it sooner.

Nothing to do with any particular mission.
Custom army names are tied to individual TAGs.

There are 222 tags in the game with some custom army names tied to them(some of them are naturally not unique)
Muscovy has none of these. Russia has 9: "Russian Imperial Army", "Army of Finland", "Army of Poland", "Army of Ukraine", "Army of Crimea", "Army of the Ural", "Army of the Caucasus", "Army of Siberia", "Army of the Baltic"


Hope this answers your question.

Thanks! My only problem was that I spend around 100 years being Russia with generic names (I did create new armies, but they were still appearing with those generic names). Then I spent some 30 years without creating new armies, and after that, the new armies started being called with those non generic names.

Funnily enough, the custom names also aren't going to work until you reload the game. ie. when going Muscovy->Russia, the first time it will start using the custom names will be the first time you load the savefile after forming Russia, and then all 9 custom names will be always proritized when creating new armies.

Ooooh, that's why. I had just reloaded a bit before. Thanks for the answer!
