I don`t remember who epirus is internally. I think it`s romans_brutii. In which case you need to add the name on the list of names for romans_brutii in descr_names. And also add it in descr_names_lookup(probably unused though). Both files being in the main data folder. Then you need to add the name in names following the format there. This file is in data\text. And lastly, if you want it in the campaign you need to add a character with that name for the romans_brutii section of descr_strat, then delete the map.rwm file and start a new campaign. The descr_strat part is a bit more complicated for a beginner because you need to take a few things under consideration when adding the character to a family tree.

EDIT: apparently Epirus uses the romans_julii slot. And also, if you want the name of Taras to be added, put it under the surname section of descr_names for Epirus with a lower dash(of_Taras)and just add it to the other files like I`ve said.
