The easyest way is to use udev.
If you edit the file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
You will see the ethernet interfaces that the system has detected.
Just change the interface names in there and on next reboot the names
will be as you wish.
Note: I cannot confirm it's the same on voyage, but it certainly works
on Debian, so it should work there too.
