There are a number of ways to do this, but one thing you can do is start the wizard to create a new historical game optimized for career play, with no import of previous league history and with your preferred ratings settings, etc. on the next few screens.
Once you get to the screen where you set your GM/manager name, don't click Next. Enter a preferred saved game name, choose your preferred name, birthdate and options, and then click the button on the bottom-left to go into Advanced Mode.
Once you're in Advanced mode, go to the Teams tab and use the Actions menu in the upper-right to randomize team names or nicknames. Or you can manually edit team names and nicknames yourself, by simply entering them into the boxes. You can even rename the league or delete the league itself and create a new one on the League tab. If you want to start your league with a fantasy draft, you can click the first option on the Options screen, which starts the game with an inaugural draft.
You can fine-tune all your preferred options and settings on all the different menus, depending on whether you want player ratings recalculated each season based on their real-life stats or you want the game's player development engine to determine everything, etc. Once you've chosen all your preferences, you can then click the Create Game tab in the left sidebar to click Start Game and get going.
Again, this is just one method of doing it, and I haven't personally tested it with this version, but it should work easily enough.
