I wouldn't do that. You can't imagine how fast such a duplicated
formatted name will appear in a real production environment.

Whenever you create a new Addressee object the uid is initialized
automatically by a random, 10 character long string.
If you want to do the initialization manually, use
  KApplication::randomString( 10 )
