    If i understood, your setting up name to something if record type is purchase order. This can be done by using workflow but not formula field

    What is the return type of the formula and what is the purpose of the field? Just putting in a formula does not give us enough to help you. See - How to Ask

You are missing a concatenation operator in several places

IF(RecordType.Name== 'Purchase Order',  
   Name='po-' & CC_OrderNumber__c & '-' & CC_Sales_Order__r.CC_OrderNumber__c ,
   Name ='so-' & CC_OrderNumber__c & '-' &  C_Project__r.Name )
