[General] How to change the race name ?

[Chucky]

How can I change the name of the races to appear as I want it in the custom game screen ? Currently it shows the default races names and I have to run the map once and only when I return to the custom game screen will appear correctly.

... What do you mean with "Race name"?...

I'm not sure, but I think you mean "Fixed Player Settings". In the World Editor, check "Scenario" tab, and "Player Settings", there you can Check "Fixed Settings" and set the player races, colors, etc.

I mean like Human, Orc, Undead, Night Elf...the text that appears when you click to select your race...and don't say Advanced -> Game Interface cause I've changed that and only after I run the map once it shows how I want it.

AFAIK...
Race names are not part of maps, are part of Wc3. You would have to edit the Wc3 MPQ files and change the data in there... Of course, the changes would work only for the player with the modified MPQ.

Not really...I saw many maps that had custom race names like Demons, Legion etc...

Selectable from the Wc3 Custom Created Game?

Yes...I once played a Wc2 map where the Undead and Night elf race were both labeled N/A
