I have seen the naval units name before but cant figure out how to create em ive done it before as well but forgot can anyone help

First you'll need an existing fleet. You can't create naval units in anything other than a fleet you already have. So build the cheapest naval unit you have, one will do.

Then note the name of the admiral of that fleet. With one or two exceptions, the name is always "Admiral Jones" or something. That means that when you use the create_unit command, you'll need to type something like:

create_unit "Admiral Frank" "holk" 3 9 3 3

That will create 3 holks, all of maximum experience, weapons and armour value in Admiral Frank's fleet.

The ship names that I know of are:

cog
holk
war galley
carrack
caravel
baghlah
fire ship

For single name ships, you can skip the quotation marks (so you can just type holk rather than "holk". For split names (like the war galley) the quotation marks are a must.

Have a go, and remember that large fleets cost a bomb in maintenance.

Thanks bro
