Cool Names
I love cool names. And my main goal is to make cool names. But what is cool? A cool business and a cool fantasy name are very different. Coolness is hard to measure. But good names share certain qualities over bad names.
Cool names are catchy and tell stories. They create images, are powerful, easy to remember and pronounce.
When you find a cool name, you can immediately check if the corresponding domain is available. A single click one the name in the save-list and a new windows open and a domain availability check is instantly performed for you. Convenient and cool.

The right mixture of catchy words and mathematical random algorithms gives variation and surprising combinations. A random number function add the necessary randomness to secure creative and random names.

How to make cool names?
If you wanna know how to make good names you have come to the right place. Here's a brief guide to finding good names at the online name generators.
First you need to decide what kind of names or generators your are looking for. Is it
- Cool nicknames
- Funny name generator
- Game name generator
- Business names
Cool nicknames
You can get cool nicknames from several of the name generators at the website. The nickname generators offers both some very funny and plenty of cool nicknames. From the scary vampire and to the salty pirate names from funny superhero and dark and evil names.
But coolness can also be the kind of mysterious badass coolness you find in the fantasy universe. So maybe one of my many fantasy generators will be the best solution in the quest for the perfect cool nicks. Try the wow, elf or fantasy name generators if you are more into badass, dark or mysterious kind of naming.
When you find the perfect nickname it can be used in unlimited ways. Use it as the ultimate cool online screen or character names in any kind of online communities. Use among your friends. Or use in your school project. Only your imagination sets the limit.
Game name generators
Lots of dedicated game name generators on the website site too. Doesn't matter if you are the casual gamer looking for a cool individual game tag or forum avatar/username. Or you are the hardcore online gamer naming you new team or group of gamers.
For the individual gamer use the elf or wow generator for cool game names. Or maybe the superhero generator if you game and character is the funny type.
If you are looking for a name for your badass team try my hardcore clan and team name generator specialized in making cool group and team names with a strong references to the fantasy world. They are perfect for online games like Call of Duty, Leagues of Legends, Runescape, Minecraft and severals of the new and upcoming online games.
Funny name generator
So you need a funny name? Several funny name generators among the lot. The superhero generator is a great place to start the search for funny names. But you has also a good opportunity to find many good funny names at the pirate, evil or nickname generator
Well i love a good laugh and an ironic and funny approach, so in many of my generators you will find the occasional funny name as the hidden easter egg. Some times on purpose, but also sometimes by chance.
Business names
Try the company generator if you are looking for new cool business names. Or you can go directly for the cool domain name and let your Internet domain define your future company, product or brand.
Or go to the code name generator that can spice up your projects with creative, funny and out of the box codenames. Or use it as a hip app name generator for your latest Android or iphone apps. Makes work a little funnier if everything not always have to be so dull. So go for the colorful, go for some funny codenames.
Character name generator
Many of the generators are character name generators. The character name generators also falls in different categories.
Funny character name generator
Most of the funny nickname randomizer are character name generators. Character name generators that are coming up with ideas for character names to your online characters or identity.
Real life character name generator
Both the fake and random name generator are real life character name generators. These very genuine and realistic character names can be used for both false Internet identities or for naming people in novels, essays or reports.
Screen name generators
Nickname generators can also be used as character name generators mainly for your Internet alter egos. But the most common use of them is for funny screen names used on online communities like forums, bulletin boards, twitter, social networking places or wherever you need a cool nick, avatar, tag or screen name.
The philosophy behind the project
The philosophy behind the whole project is that an online web application should only offer the fundamental features and functions. Features that will satisfy the needs of 90% of my users. This philosophy makes the name generators easy to operate from your very first visit.
Many name generators requires user input like typing your name, checking your sex etc. I think they are a hassle to use. Much faster just to hit the generator button and make a new name, if you didn't like the first ones. And just click away. Remember all the names are saved to a list, so you won't miss any of them.
Other name generators are characterized by messy user interfaces and too many and confusing choice to make. This is unnecessary. The online generator is supposed to do the hard work. Not you.
The result is that the name generators are easy to use, easy to understand, simple and functional even for first timers.
The programming behind the project
All the scripting are based on native JavaScript to produce a super fast, instantly and modern responsive web apps.
The JavaScript is executed locally in the users browser. It's modern web technology at its best. Super high speed naming and maximum privacy. Server side technologies like php are extremely slow
