It's not a bug, it's by design... (Apple)
"It looks like after the rename, there is a re-sorting. Since the name changes causes the file to be at a different location in the list, it will jump to the new sorted location. That is by design. If you want the file to stay in its place after a rename, then change the sorting to something that does not sort by name. (cmd-j for view options)

I have a problem: Finder bug...?! At least it works now on El Capitan (OS X 10.11) different then before as on Yosemite (OS X 10.10) and Mavericks... What's going on here?
PROBLEM
I was always fast in renaming files by quickly press move down arrows after ENTER, then Finder did jumped to the next file I want to rename --but NO, it doesn't anymore on El Capitan! Instead it jumps back to the file I was renaming before...
SORRY, BUT THIS IS USELESS!
PS: Anyway, Mario jumps better then Finder... so let Mario jump and Finder stand still!
Also you can't select multiple files with SHIFT in Finder when in Icon mode... this is stupid also.
PS2: Yes, I know there is this new (cool and useful) rename function. Right-click on multiple files selected, choose Rename X items... etc. but the normal renaming is not working correctly any more...
