To reproduce:
On a brand new install of Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" 64-bit with chromium-browser 34.0.1847.116-0ubuntu2 and Unity 7.2.0+14.04.20140423-0ubuntu1.2 (all fully updated when bug found):

1. Install Chromium
2. Click the Settings icon on the right
3. Click on Tools > Create Application Shortcuts...
4. [Deselect Desktop] Select Application Menu
5. An icon will come up with the Chromium logo with the 'Facebook' name
6. Close all
6. Unlock the normal 'Chromium' one from the Launcher
7a. When clicking on the 'Facebook' launcher - launches a New Tab in Chromium.
7b. When searching for 'Chromium' in the Dash, it can't find it - Chromium is now known as Facebook

For some reason, I can now add a second Facebook launcher with the correct icon and everything but the Chromium one which calls itself 'Facebook' in the Dash and Launcher just acts like normal Chromium. Because of this, I'm not sure if the bug can be reproduced. Really annoying though: if anyone has a fix for this (so - how do I correct 'Chromium' to call itself 'Chromium' not 'Facebook' in the Dash) then I would be very grateful :)
