According to Amazon's Kindle Forums, it's not supposed to do that:

Suzie - To change the order of your Kindles you would need to put them in alphabetical order. However, the Kindle reading apps always come after the actual Kindle devices in the default scheme. The Fire uses the Android reading app and is considered an app for default device purposes. Therefore, you will not be able to make your Fire the default device if you have other actual Kindle devices.

Go to http://amazon.com/manageyourkindle and then Manage Your Devices to change the name.

Tip - You can put a character in front of the name like _ or a period and that will work.
You could try renaming your Kindles so the Touch is the first one in the list, though...
