Is there a way to manually add information in the Host name column? So that every time I do a scan from a saved results file, the information I entered would appear. Thank you.

No, but there is a special column for custom tags or names. It is called Friendly names, see Options - Friendly Names / Comments in the main menu.

You can choose to associate custom names with IP addresses, MAC addresses, host names or a combination of these.

It's exactly where the above message says. Click Options in the main menu, and there you will see the Friendly Names / Comments item.
