I'm working this process out in my head - I'm thinking that you are not utilizing guest registration because this question is coming too late in the registration process to place that widget. So you are kind of stuck with the question route. If memory serves, you can't have a question appear that is optional item-dependent, only session-dependent (I think I put in an idea request for this exact thing, ha), so you can't make it a required question for everyone.
So my only other workaround suggestion to make sure you get an answer would be to put a required question that asks, "Are you bringing a dinner guest" and a required follow up sub-question for all 'yes' answers that asks for their name.

Subject: Optional Item during Registration
I am building a registration site for an event and attendees will have the option of bringing a guest to a dinner for an additional charge. I have added the dinner guest as an optional item during registration and it is working correctly when calculating the total cost of the meeting. My question is - is there a way to add a field for the registrant to provide the guest's name for badging purposes? I can add a blank "please put in names below...." but I did not know if there was a better way?
