Random Name Picker
Drop in names and pick one fairly at the tap of a button.
About Random Name Picker
Paste any list of names and the picker chooses one at random with a quick suspense roll and a burst of confetti. It's ideal for choosing who goes first, drawing a small winner, or picking a volunteer without anyone claiming it was rigged.
Switch on remove after picking to work through a list without repeats. Everything happens in your browser, so long lists stay private and there's no waiting on a server.
How to use it
- Paste or type one name per line.
- Press Pick a name.
- Turn on remove after picking to avoid repeats across rounds.
Frequently asked questions
How many names can I add?
As many as you like — the picker handles hundreds of names instantly because it runs entirely in your browser.
Can it avoid picking the same name twice?
Yes. Enable remove after picking and each chosen name is taken out of the pool until you refresh or re-add it.
Is it fair?
Every name has an equal chance on each pick, using the browser's cryptographic random generator.
