$ gnome-terminal --help-all
.....
  -t, --title=TITLE               Set the terminal title
.....

That does not set the first part of WM_CLASS but WM_NAME, and an
application running inside that terminal may change it, but maybe will
do?  There are also
.....
  --class=CLASS                   Program class as used by the window manager
  --name=NAME                     Program name as used by the window manager
.....
but what precisely they affect and how you will have to dig out yourself.
