Is there a way to get rid of the fqdn_keytype name that the generate known_hosts file has for each line... I known it really doesn't hurt, but it annoys me that it is there, since it is not a valid alias for the host.

Can you add an example line, please?

Currently my ssh_known_hosts-file looks a bit like the following... the first token (HOST1_rsa and such) on the line is the resource-name I think, and not a valid host name, thus I would prefer it not to be there at all.

FQDN1_rsa,IP1,HOST1,FQDN1 ssh-rsa AAAA...
FQDN1_ecdsa,IP1,HOST1,FQDN1 ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 AAAA...
FQDN1_ed25519,IP1,HOST1,FQDN1 ssh-ed25519 AAAA...
FQDN2_rsa,IP2,HOST2,FQDN2 ssh-rsa AAAA...
FQDN2_ecdsa,IP2,HOST2,FQDN2 ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 AAAA...
FQDN2_ed25519,IP2,HOST2,FQDN2 ssh-ed25519 AAAA...

Now I get it. That's not possible as this will result in a duplicate resource.

Have a look at

puppet-ssh/manifests/hostkeys.pp

Line 46 in 6e0f430

@@sshkey { "${fqdn_real}_${key_type}":

So this is more a problem with how the sshkey resource works... I tried adding a name => $fqdn, but that caused some errors

Maybe it's possible if the title is set to fqdn and the value for name is unique. I'll check that.

No, sorry. I don't see any way to solve this.
