Fire lancers are localized to “Feuer-Lanzenreiter”, which basically says “Fire lance rider”.

100% of the time / matches I play (ALWAYS)

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

Start the game (with language set to german)
Open up the technology tree or start a game with a civ that gets fire lancers
Fire lancers are named “Feuer-Lanzenreite” (eng. “Fire lance riders”)

EXPECTED RESULT

^{What was SUPPOSED to happen if the bug you encountered were not present?}
They should be named like an infantry unit, not a cavalry unit. Like “Feuerlanzen-Kämpfer” or “Feuerlanzen-Träger” or “Feuer-Lanzenträger” or something like that.
