Open gnome-terminal with multi tabs and automatically run a script in each tab

Hi All ,
i am trying to create an alias to open a new gnome-terminal and run some commands in each tab & to have a specific name for each tab

i am using csh ,
tried this command
gnome-terminal --tab -t "s1" --tab -t "s2" --tab -t "s3" --tab -t "s4"

it opened 4 tabs but the title didn't change

===
also tried this
gnome-terminal -e "scriptToRun"
and a new terminal opened with an error as following :
"There was an error creating the child process for this terminal Failed to execute child process "1" (No such file or directory)"
