Rather than override it on the command line to grub-install, you should
customize GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR in /etc/default/grub.

Title:
  unable to persist bootloader id

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I have more than one install of Ubuntu on my system and in order to
  distinguish them in the in the efi boot manager I install them with:
  grub-install --bootloader-id="Ubuntu 13.10 - DEV" replacing the
  bootloader id with a significant name for that install. However any
  update that triggers grub-install does not persist this naming scheme
  and returns to the default ubuntu name, making it impossible to
  distinguish systems.
