It's difficult to tell you the manual to read when you haven't even
revealed what software package and version you're running.  I assume
it's some version of the ISC's DHCP implementation.

TCP?  You're confused.

Look at the man page for dhcpd, then dhcpd.conf.  Look for
get-lease-hostnames, use-host-decl-names, and option host-name.  You can
work out which options you need.
