Random name picker
Names
Fill a field and the next one appears. You cannot pick more names than you wrote in.
Picked
Press Pick and the names appear here.
Picks live on screen only.
How the pick works
Every name you write in is as likely as the others. When you pick several, no one is picked twice.
What if the same name is in twice
They are treated as two different people. Names are told apart by their field, so two people with the same name can both be written in as they are — and writing one name twice does double its chances.
What it is for
Choosing who presents, who runs an errand, or which one person a group has to settle on.
How is the share link built
Share puts the names you wrote and the result into the address and builds a link. Opening that link shows the same result. It holds up to 10 characters per name and up to 12 names — past that the address gets cut in messaging apps.
The address is scrambled so the values are not readable, and changing one character stops the result from showing. That catches links garbled in transit or edited by hand. It does not confirm who ran it, or when. The names you wrote go into an address only when you build a link, and are not sent anywhere.
