have you ever heard about DNS? :-)
I have.  The gateway includes a mini DNS server within itself, as you probably know.  I could set up a DNS server on one of my hosts, but don't think this would be worth the trouble, since there will be at most 4 of them.  Thanks for your advice, which is well meant though mischievously stated (;-).
