Random Baby Name Generator
Random baby name, or pick from your shortlist.
Two names on the fridge and neither of you will budge? Paste your finalists and let the picker choose, or leave the list empty to browse a 222-name bank — 100 boy, 92 girl, and 30 unisex names — filtered by gender and starting letter. Parents use it to break shortlist deadlocks, find names starting with a family initial, or just spark fresh ideas.

Veelgestelde vragen
Can it pick between names my partner and I already chose?
Yes. Paste your shortlist into the list box, one name per line, and the tool picks only among those. The gender and letter filters are ignored whenever your shortlist has entries.
How big is the built-in name bank?
222 curated given names: 100 boy, 92 girl, and 30 unisex. It's meant for sparking ideas rather than serving as a comprehensive registry, so treat it as a browsing pool.
Can I find names starting with a specific letter?
Yes. With the shortlist empty, type a letter in the starting-letter box — useful for matching a family initial or a sibling naming pattern. Combine it with the gender filter to narrow further.
Can I send my shortlist to my partner?
Click Share link and the tool copies a URL containing your current list and filter settings, so your partner opens the page with the same shortlist loaded and can draw independently.
Will it suggest the same name twice?
It can, unless you switch on no-repeats, which remembers drawn names and skips them until every name in your current pool — shortlist or filtered bank — has come up once.

- Naming a baby around a constraint you already have
Most couples aren't naming from a blank slate — they're naming around a rule: match a sibling's initial, honor a grandparent's letter, or stay unisex. Here's how to turn those constraints into filters instead of fighting them.
- Picking a baby name is two different problems: discovery, then decision
Early on, the problem is too few ideas. Later, it's too many good ones. Here's why a baby name generator needs two separate modes — filtered random discovery and paste-your-shortlist decision — and a routine for each phase.
