Or, to put it another way, "find a string that the naive user of a

differentiate between systems in a multi-system config file.

One of my systems has about 5 valid fully qualified domain names... consider that in whatever you do.

But... Wait! How can that be? Your system can't really have more than one name, can it? Isn't one name "more important" than the other names? Won't gethostname() return "the" name?
