You might be using their flags or ships, which would mean the game wouldn't add them as empires since it would mean duplicate ships/flags.

Hmmm, that might be it.

Is there anyway to change the initial fleet names? I dislike the current greek system, and I don't want to keep changing the fleet name every time I make a new fleet.

The default fleet names are hard-coded.

I wish they weren't hard coded.

It's interesting to note though that when an AI creates a fleet, they are named simply Fleet 1 .. Fleet N etc.

Not really, unless you want to hand your fleet operations over to the Fleets Minister. Just as easy to hit "N" after you create a fleet to name to something different.

Only if you want to cede all control over fleet management to the AI minister.

EDIT:
Aargh, stupid forum not taking me to the last page first...
