I tried dig -x 10.6.3.77 and got the machine name of the user.
I also searched the log files for both the IP and machine name of the user and found that squid has logged IP on one request, then name on second request, then IP on third request, then the rest were all looged by machine name.

If log_fqdn is on then Squid will log the host name, provided the DNS
server responds in a reasonable time.
Can you resolve the IP addresses from the Squid server?
dig -x ip.of.client.station
or alternatively
dig -x ip.of.client.station @selected.nameserver.address
