It could also be the /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules file.
This bit me recently when I couldn't tell for the life of me why
interfaces constantly showed up as eth1 or eth2 instead of eth0 no
matter how hard I tried.  Editing the ifcfg-ethX files didn't matter
since udev was whacking it first.

Nuke 70-persistent-net.rules (it will be recreated so don't lose any
sleep) and you may be in business.
