Timestamp to a string

I have to attach a timestamp to a string with optional date format. (
to create a file )

Eg:
String str = new("filenameMM-DD-YYYY.txt");
or
String str = new("filename.txt");

I need something like str.format(date) which would replace the date
format (if present ) with the current timestamp.

Any help ?

Thanks
