Is it possible to hide the client name on the DHCP server?

Good day to all!
There is a DHCP server on Windows 2012 R2 with an address pool for wireless devices. It is necessary to disguise a couple of devices under other names, but here's the problem.
When adding an address reservation, the required name is entered in the "Client Name" field, after which it appears in the list of addresses in the "Reservation (inactive)" state:

after connecting the client, it is assigned the name of the android device: I

tried to add parameters 012 Host Name, no result .
Is it even possible to set the desired name for the device in the DHCP options? For which devices can the 012 parameter be used?

And who is stopping you in DHCP to reserve the desired address with the desired name, and on the android specify this address as static? Thus, no one will take the address and the android will not give out its real name to the server.

the possibility exists if the device is configured to accept the name given by the server in the hostname parameter. the parameter can be used for any device that accepts it (then the dhcp server for the device will have the name specified by the administrator) or not accept (then it will be the name returned by the device).
your android device does not accept the name given by the dhcp server, it sends the name that it will use to the server, the server remembers it. and this is correct, since the dhcp server must store the actual information, it is not designed to mask.
