That's not a bug. See for example this old Ubuntu bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/19631
LVM and /dev/mapper keep names like this:
vgname-lvname
When there's a dash in either the vgname or the lvname, it is doubled to
excape it. So "my-volume-group" and "my-logical-volume" becomes:
my--volume--group-my--logical--volume
I think Grub2 should be able to cope with that.
