No, bucket names in crush map are completely arbitrary. In fact, crush doesn't really know what a "host" is. It is just a bucket, like "rack" or "datacenter". But they could be called "cat" and "mouse" just as well.
The only reason to use host names is for human readability. You can then use crush rules to make sure that for instance two copies of some object are not on the same "host" or in the same "rack" or not in the same whatever bucket you like. This way you can define your failure domains in correspondence with your physical layout. Kind regards, Erik.
