You have to create some udev rules to tie device names to MAC addresses.
Search the archives of this mailing list and you'll find a few threads
about this problem (with the solutions, of course).
If you have udev-103, by far the easiest way to do this is run
/lib/udev/write_net_rules all_interfaces
This will generate /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules that you
can then edit to assign whatever names you want.
