Another way of doing such allocation would be to hash the MAC address
and then use the hash mod 9,765,625 to index into the set of possible
names, resolving conflicts via a secondary hash and then linear
probing subsequent to that. This would have the minor advantage for
folk testing that they would end up with the same names on repeated
test runs.
