Random Name Generator
Generate random full names for story characters, game players, classroom lists or placeholder text. The names come from short, generic lists and are not linked to any real person.
How to use it
Choose how many names you need and whether repeats are allowed. Press Generate for a new set. The names are built by pairing a first name and a last name at random.
Example
Five names might look like Aisha Clark, Noah Khan and so on. Each press gives a fresh list.
Limits and accuracy
The lists are small, so common combinations can appear across many generations. Names are for fiction, games and placeholders only, not for identifying anyone.
Frequently asked questions
Are these names real people?
The first and last names are common generic names. Any match with a real person is coincidental, so do not treat the output as identifying anyone.
Can I add my own names?
Not in this version. Use the Random Item Picker with your own list instead.
