What do you mean by "bibtex suggests"? When I use bibtex it produces a
label, and what label is controled by the bibliography style. What is
a bibtex.el file? Are you using emacs as your editor? Are you asking a
question about the integration of bibtex with emacs?

Maybe you should read
http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=BibTeXing

or chapter 12/13 of the Latex Companion?

Maybe you should give a minimal example of what you do now and
explain what you want to change.

Minimal example?
