CLOSED: Hostname incorrect

Fedora 23.
The hostname i presume should be hda.yourdomain.com?
Mine has pulled a DHCP name off my router (even though that IP address was not the same as HDA), so now my HDA is actually called
ace3.fritz.box
Can I use hostnamectl to correct it?

Yes that would work.

See change host name guidance in the wiki.

No problem.
