Assistance with 'split -l' command

[Gary Vaughan]

I am working with csv files and when I perform the split -l, it splits the fioe correctly, but is putting the 'aa','ab','ac' after the file extension.  Would love to know how to get it after the file name before the file extension.
 as an exampole, command split -l 5000 /desktop/ESM.csv /desktop/ESM.csv
is resulting ESM/csvaa and would like it to be ESMaa.csv
