udev would never pick the names wlan0 or wlan1 automatically, this is not how it (ever) worked. wlan0 and wlan1 are the sort of names the kernel sets, and at most udev (in very old versions) might have tried to remember these names between reboots and reapply them. This scheme is no longer in place though, so unless your distro is shipping some non-standard stuff or you have some old rule files lying around in /etc/udev/rules.d you should not be affected by that (and even if you are, I don't see how this would cause your current problem). Are you sure that udev is even renaming your devices at all? Booting with debug logging will tell you. You should see "Renamed network interface 'foo' to 'bar'" in your logs.
