You don't have to name your USB if you don't want to.
Once it is completed you can mount it back and you are good to go.
Hope it helps.

so i gave it a try, but tried to format the two into one and the result was this
root@galliumos:/home/ivan# mkfs.vfat -n usb -I /dev/sda /dev/sdb
mkfs.fat 3.0.28 (2015-05-16)
mkfs.fat: warning - lowercase labels might not work properly with DOS or Windows
Warning: block count mismatch: found 1423360 but assuming 0.
Bad block count : /dev/sdb
Usage: mkfs.fat [-a][-A][-c][-C][-v][-I][-l bad-block-file][-b backup-boot-sector]
[-m boot-msg-file][-n volume-name][-i volume-id]
[-s sectors-per-cluster][-S logical-sector-size][-f number-of-FATs]
[-h hidden-sectors][-F fat-size][-r root-dir-entries][-R reserved-sectors]
[-M FAT-media-byte][-D drive_number]
[--invariant]
[--help]
/dev/name [blocks]
