Windows Server 2012 R2 VPN and Computer Name Lookup

Hi, iv been setting up a VPN server but been dealing with the following issue, i need that the computers that connect to my vpn server to be able to resolve computer names, so far iv found 2 solutions:

1- Edit the host file on each client computer and manually add the ip and the name of the computer so when they get connected to the vpn i can ping and access them with their computer name

2- Create a DNS Server on my VPN Server Network, so i can assing the address over there, problem with this is it force me to use a FDQN name into the computer name resulting is something like for example computer.domain.com

So my question is, is there any way to resolve the computer names once i get connected to my VPN server without having to use the host file on each computer or without using a FDQN?
