The source for the uuid is the region file. Then, it is written to 
the 'regions' table as long as the simulator is running. This is the 
only place where the (id x name) mapping is stored. If the simulator 
quits, the row gets deleted (this is what I observe in my standalone).

However, if somebody teleported directly to your region from his 
grid, he should still have a record in his database 
(http://hg.osgrid.org:80: Vue-Rig). Unfortunately, I only have 
Vue-Port since this is your recommended HG gateway. This is how I 
know that Vue-Port is 2aa49e09-f1b1-4f20-8ae3-55e0399a674c.

Another place where the region uuid is used is the 'prims' table. So, 
supposing you get a copy of the simulator database and remember the 
name of an object belonging to the region, you can recover the region 
uuid.
