Not all filesystems have labels.
For my information, could you list some? Every filesystem I ever
used to format disks had one (ext?, reiserfs, btrfs, vfat)

You can make one with fdisk or cfdisk or parted or gparted or similar.
Just fail to include a label.
This isn't just a theoretical thing, lots of people don't label their
thumb drives.
Another issue is a lot of thumb drives have the same label. I bet there
are millions with the label "backup".
But there are tools on Linux to add a label to a filesystem; here
is the first thing I do to a new usb stick:
/sbin/dosfslabel /dev/sdb1 $my_name
Very usefull when exchanging sticks.
