man mkfs:
-U UUID
Set the universally unique identifier (UUID) of the filesystem
to UUID. The format of the UUID is a series of hex digits sepa‐
rated by hyphens, like this:
"c1b9d5a2-f162-11cf-9ece-0020afc76f16". The UUID parameter may
also be one of the following:
clear clear the filesystem UUID
random generate a new randomly-generated UUID
time generate a new time-based UUID

There is nomkfs. There aremkfs.<type>. Each of them on its own may or may not support-Uand the option may or may not mean what you wrote. E.g. compare whatman mkfs.ntfssays about-U.
