This probably belongs in ubuntu-raspi-settings, but one could construct a /usr/lib/systemd/network/70-raspi-nic-default.link that matches based on the available keys[1].

Then either set Name= or NamePolicy= as appropriate.

I don't think there is anything for systemd to do here, but if there is something lacking (like a property to match against), re-open.

Oh, I actually did this back in ... erm ... mantic maybe (the git blame isn't here because ubuntu-raspi-settings got split out as a separate source package in noble, but this change was definitely before then):

Anyway, will close as fix released
