No need for dual entry or messing with the hosts file, unbound alone
is fine for resolving names.

You have it backwards, let dhcp use the information in unbound to
assign the reserved address:
===============================
host alice {
hardware ethernet 20:9e:02:f5:93:60;
fixed-address alice.home.lan;
option host-name "alice";
}
===============================
Start unbound before dhcpd in your rc.conf.local (ex):
===============================
unbound_flags="-c /var/unbound/etc/unbound.conf"
dhcpd_flags="em0"
===============================
Make sure your resolv.conf points to unbound so that your system can
resolve the local dns names.
