GUID / UUID v5 is a name-based identifier that generates deterministic GUIDs / UUIDs by hashing a namespace UUID and a name using the SHA-1 algorithm. The same namespace and name combination always produces the same GUID / UUID, making it useful for stable, repeatable identifiers derived from existing data. V5 is the modern, preferred alternative to v3, which uses the weaker MD5 algorithm.
