Are you using the same viewer in all 3 browsers?

Firefox's built-in PDF viewer will extract one of the PDF document properties if available and show that along with the file name. At least that's what was happening in this thread: PDF preview creates bad title for page.

You can try switching between the built-in viewer and the Adobe Acrobat viewer as described in this article to see whether that makes a difference: View PDF files using Firefox’s built-in viewer.

But, as for how to make different viewers consistent, hmm..., I'm not sure you can.
