Is this what you were expecting?

brain at debian:~$ sudo sed -e 's,neurodebian,debian,g' /etc/hosts
sudo: unable to resolve host debian
127.0.0.1	localhost
127.0.1.1	debian

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters


Cheers,

Ariel
