Not really.  The trap origin in the trap window will show whatever name 
your name resolution provides.
To have only shortnames, you'd have to have a separate /etc/hosts file 
take precedence.

Yes, the names are only to the first dot on the map However, I meant to

Yes,  would rediscover those nodes whose names no longer resolve.
And the fully qualified name will be used for the Selection Name, but
the map will show the name only up to the first dot. Is that not what
you are seeing?
