What's the simplest way to figure out the bonjour name of devices in a local network?

the question says it all.

Can someone please tell me if that is possible and how?

I already have the IP Addresses and the MAC Addresses of the devices I want the bonjour name from...

Assuming you're looking for machines in the .local domain and your mDNS server listens on the default reserved IP of 224.0.0.251, port 5353 you can perform a reverse lookup with dig in the same way you'd refer to a unicast hostname:

dig -x 192.168.1.12 @224.0.0.251 -p 5353

Where 192.168.1.12 is the IP you want to check out.
