if you hoover the mouse on the entry, or even click on it, it will filter the queries for that particular entry.
When I hover, I see the expected name:
When I click, I'm presented with the same crazy hostname as the client:
For context, the one I clicked on is just a LIFX lightbulb. Also, I just noticed that the time of the request is ridiculously far future. I can't explain that.

Did you forward any ports so that external servers can access your Pi-hole?
I have no port forwards configured except some SSH and MOSH ports to another host on the LAN, not the pihole.
Perhaps you set Pi-hole as your WAN DNS server, and it is showing the external hostnames of your devices?
Hilariously, I made this exact misconfiguration when I first set up my new router several months ago. Sadly, it's not the case anymore.
Could this have something to do with my logging setup?
pi@pihole:~ $ ls /mnt/dns-backup | wc -l

pi@pihole:~ $ cat logrotate
/var/log/pihole.log {
su root root

It seems unlikely but that's basically the only customization I've done aside from having to checkout Pi-hole Version vDev (HEAD, v3.2.1-0-ge602008) because I hit some problem with 3.3.0 that caused dnsmasq not to start.
