There are two API depending on what exactly you want:

  Names::FindShortName (netDevice)

would return something like "eth0" if you only need to know the name of the
device itself.

  Names::FindFullName (netDevice)

would return something like "/Names/access-point/ath0" if you need it for,
say, a config path.
