That's normal.  If your system uses udev, you can change the name of
it by adding a line to /etc/udev/rules.d/00-local

  KERNEL=="eth*", SYSFS{address}=="01:23:45:67:89:ab", NAME="wifi0"

where 01:23:45:67:89:ab is the MAC address of your wifi card, and
wifi0 is the new name you want. (You can in fact do this for any network
device.  I use the following to keep the firewire ethernet device from
changing my eth0/eth1 numbers depending on when it's loaded:)

  KERNEL=="eth*", BUS=="ieee1394", NAME="fw%n"
