Pokemon-go – I have Jolteon / Vaporeon / Flareon. I tried for another Jolteon but got a Vaporeon!

I have a weak Jolteon, so I took 25 Eevees and tried to evolve another one. I was hoping for stronger combat moves. So, I renamed the Eevee "Sparky" and evolved it, but got a Vaporeon! Losing those 25 candies is really painful. The new Vaporeon has the weakest moves possible. I'm really bummed.

I want to try for a strong Jolteon one more time, but what the heck? Is this a bug? Does anyone have experience with this issue?

The nickname trick works only once for each of the Eeveelutions.
