I'm assuming the name you are referring to is the name Windows displays by clicking Settings > System > Remote Desktop (with the text appearing):

If I'm right, you are instead connecting via another mechanism (such as SMB). In any event, hostname doesn't work for me when I connect via cell phone using OpenVPN from either Android or iPhone. For the Android Remote Desktop app the host's private IP address does work. For the iPhone Remote Desktop app, it doesn't.
