It became magic when the kernel started detecting devices in parallel so the names are essentially randomized. The ethN devices are supposed to be sorted out and renamed before activation if you have the ethernet hardware address in the corresponding /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethN file. Run 'ifconfig' and be sure the hwaddr matches what is in your file for each nic.
