Save new file name using wildcards with awk

I have 22 files named with numbers that go to 1 to 22. Like:

bla.chr1.bla.norm

bla.chr2.bla.norm

etc...

I made a simple awk script to add on the first column that particular number of the filename:

for i in {1..22}

do 

awk '{print "'"$i "'" $0}' *.chr${i}.*.norm > *.chr${i}.*.norm.chr 

done

But now I want to save all the files using the wildcard I used before. Is it possible?

Try this, gawk 

awk '{match(FILENAME,"chr([0-9]+).",t); print t[1] $0 > FILENAME".chr"}' *.norm
