Out of curiosity, what's the proper way to do that?

I had problems when I tried this, so I know it's not right:
127.0.0.1       demerzel.localdomain localhost

So I've just been using this:
127.0.0.1 demerzel.localdomain demerzel

But tonight while migrating to lprng I had problems not having localhost 
defined,
so I added a second loopback line which appeared to solve it:
127.0.0.1 demerzel.localdomain demerzel
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost

But is there a better/proper way?
