Making a hostname show up in a traceroute, ala rednote

Yes, but /etc/hosts is meant to be used for small private networks, so
that wouldn't work in this case. Without seeing a traceroute to a
particular machine on Janina's rednote.net domain that illustrates
your example, I'm not sure what the exact answer to your question
is. However, if I do understand what you're asking for, then all your
friend should need to do is to put an A record into his DNS zones
using the same IP address in each A record.
