This works here:
#########################################
set cmd to "date"
set instanceName to "Applescript result"
property windowName : missing value -- to instanceName & " bash"
tell application "Terminal"
try
do script cmd in w
on error
do script "echo " & instanceName
tell front window to set custom title to instanceName
set w to item 1 of windows
end try
end tell
