yep. I don’t think thats specific to EKS, pulumi does this across the board

This is the auto-naming functionality in Pulumi. <https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/programming-model/#autonaming>

Generally you can override this by setting a `name: 'my-cluster'` property on the resource. You can do this if you're using the EKS resources via `@pulumi/aws`, but it looks like we don't expose this via `@pulumi/eks`.

There's an issue for this at <https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-eks/issues/118>.
