What Is a Random Name Generator?

Novelists naming NPCs, indie game developers populating a roster, QA engineers seeding fake user accounts and parents-to-be browsing baby names all reach for the same utility. The output has to feel plausible (real names, not nonsense syllables) without belonging to any actual person.

This picker draws from ~100 male first names, ~100 female first names and ~100 common English surnames, combined uniformly via crypto.getRandomValues. Pick Male, Female or Any (mixed) and request between 1 and 50 names per click. Copy all sends the list to the clipboard ready for a script, spreadsheet or test fixture.

For non-English styles (Spanish, Japanese, Arabic), check a name corpus specific to that locale — these lists ship with English-style names only.
