lisi, 

hopefully this is to the list and not private.

for your home network -

/etc/hosts
add the ipaddress followed by the hostname

i.e.
127.0.0.1	localhost
127.0.1.1	hestia

192.168.122.10	testing
192.168.122.11	stable
192.168.122.12	one-i386

that will make ssh user@hostname work instead of user@ipaddress.  also works with scp and sftp

take care
