vdev uses by default old naming convention but has a file
called /etc/vdev/ifnames.conf where you can set names arbitrarily.

Example ifnames.conf that is auto-generated at compile time
(only covered up my mac addresses)

# Format:
# PERSISTENT_INTERFACE_NAME mac|devpath MATCH_ARGUMENT
# * PERSISTENT_INTERFACE_NAME is the persistent name of the network
interface
# * If the second argument is "mac", then MATCH_ARGUMENT is the
colon-separated MAC address
# * If the second argument is "devpath", then MATCH_ARGUMENT is the
device path to the NIC in sysfs
#
# Example: a wireless USB dongle, to be named "wlan-edimax"
#
# Using the "mac" match:
# wlan-edimax mac 80:1F:02:D3:B2:83
#
# Using the "devpath" match:
# wlan-edimax devpath
/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.1/1-1.1:1.0
