The stations do not report their host name to Squid. Squid gets the host
name from your DNS server by a reverse lookup of the IP address.
This is a different query than the lookup of IP address from host name
as used when you ping someone, and is registered differently in your DNS
server.
To manually do the same DNS lookup as done by Squid you can use the dig
command. For example to look up the hostname of the client with IP
address 192.168.2.58 you do
dig -x 192.168.2.58
