So.

en -> is ethernet prefix. Given that there are other types of ccw
devices that is ok.

cww -> is type of driver used, which is not necessary in the name.

0.0.0 -> i believe is redundant

600 -> is good, as that's the unique address that is used to configure
thing in z/VM

I'm proposing to simply call them:

en600

Title:
  installed system qeth NIC name is too verbose

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  installed system qeth NIC name is too verbose

  Specifically on s390x it came up as:

  enccw0.0.0600

  which is possibly too verbose, however it is definitive and trivial to
  understand for anyone with z/VM knowledge as this correlates with
  device hex address (aka 0x600 nic)
