How to get pc-name from IP address?

Question

Anyone can tell me how to resolve pc-name for a given IP address on local area network ?

I went through many answers but no one helped me :/

I am mentioning all tricks I used below ::

netstat -a <ip>

nmblookup -A <ip>

host <ip>

nbtscan <ip>

nbtscan <ip>

arp -a

nmap -sP <ip>

No one resolved name of pc corresponding to given IP address.

Thanking you in advance!!

Solution

On Linux Machine you can see by typing:

$ nslookup 216.58.197.46

Output:

Server:         127.0.1.1
Address:        127.0.1.1#53
Non-authoritative answer:
46.197.58.216.in-addr.arpa      name = maa03s20-in-f14.1e100.net.

On Windows Machine You can check it with:

C:\Users\Administrator>ping -a 216.58.197.46

Or

nslookup 216.58.197.46

Output:
