> Is there a standard for renaming fe80:: addresses to represent they are interfacing with different vlans?

well, yes. Link-local addresses (FE80::/10) areas you say interpreted only in the LAN in question. The usual approach is to give the LAN a subnet prefix. The standard is RFC 4291.

http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4291.txt
4291 IP Version 6 Addressing Architecture. R. Hinden, S. Deering.
     February 2006. (Format: TXT=52897 bytes) (Obsoletes RFC3513) (Updated
     by RFC5952, RFC6052) (Status: DRAFT STANDARD)
