You can't just assign host names.  You can address tomcat as

http://localhost:8080/

or, if your host has another valid name, say frog.pond, then you can
address tomcat as

http://frog.pond:8080/

This is not a tomcat issue, it is an operating system issue, or really
a network issue.  You can set your host name to whatever you like, but
if you are on a network then it is best to ask your sysadmin about it
- they can change your machine's entry in your DNS.
