Name Generators

The name generators is a 1 man project.
I wanna make generators that are easy and fun to use for everyone.

I aim to make generators that can make cool names. Cool names in many variations. From business names to fantasy and nicknames.

Online Name Generator

The Online Name Generator make cool names with a single click. Find your favorite name generator and get a cool name for your self, your friends and your projects.

I want to keep it simple. Just click the big button to get your name. Click once, twice or 100 times an get 1, 2 or 100 cool names. All the names are saved to a list, so you won't miss any of them.

Cool Names

I love cool names. And my main goal is to make cool names. But what makes it cool. A cool business and a cool fantasy name are very different, but good names share certain qualities over bad names.

Cool names are catchy and tell stories. They make images, are powerful, easy to remember and pronounce etc.

Name generators categories

The generators can roughly be divided into 3 major categories after their primary uses. You can get cool online names, nicks and screen names with the nickname generator, superhero generator or the vampire generator.

Create cool business names with the business generator, codename and project name generator. Lots of good ideas and inspiration to business names and project titles.

Create fantasy names with the elf generator, clan generator and the evil name generator. Lots of cool fantasy names to all your RPG characters.

Random Names

All the random name generators totally make more than 25,000,000 random and unique names. Ranging from funny and cool names to more serious project tiles and brands!

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

Domain availability check

On many of the generators you can now perform a domain availability check directly from the save list. Just pick the suggestion you would like to domain check, click them to find out if any corresponding domains are available.

If the domain is already taken alternative domains and top level domains are suggested based on your initial request.

Evil Names

In many of my generators you can already find both dark and evil names. But my new Evil Name Generator is pure evil. Nothing but evil names.

The evil name generator is a hybrid. Half fantasy and half nickname generator. It takes the best from both worlds. A fantasy generator makes the base, and a nickname gives the final evil touch.

Pirate names

For 2010 I have released a Pirate Name Generator. It is based on real pirate names and pirate expressions.

So now you can make both male and female pirate names, and the female pirate names are very suited for pirate ship names.

Major update on the fantasy names

The fantasy name generator has gone through a major update. The fantasy name arrays are revised and updated and the random algorithms are improved to give even more variation in the generated fantasy names.

The fantasy generator is one of the oldest of my generators. And the fantasy generator forms the base for many of my other generators.

Nickname Generator

I have made huge update to the nickname generator .

I have added new nicknames to the generator and removed some of the older nicknames.

The random name algorithms has also been updated and I have added new nickname combinations. The nickname generator now makes more of the short nicknames and fewer long nicknames.

List of cool names

As a long wanted feature I have added a cool list of random names to all the generators. Now all the generated names are saved to that list.

Before you leave you just save the list of cool names.

Guild Name Generator

After a lot of success with the World of Warcraft generator I have made a Guild Name Generator

Business name generator

The Business Name Generator are perfect for making cool ideas and suggestions for naming your business or business ideas.

New Fantasy names

I have updated the Fantasy Name Generator to make true fantasy names. The Fantasy Generator now use short syllables to compose the fantasy name.

Syllables like eg. el, dor, dan, al give male fantasy names like "Eldan" and "Aldor".

Female fantasy names and surnames are generated the same way. Then the different parts is combined together to form new and unique fantasy names.

Fantasy names are perfect for your online characters in WOW, Metin2, Runescape etc. The names can be used as barbarian names, dwarf and gnome names, knight and warrior names, ogre and troll names, goblin names and all other races and creatures you will meet in the fantasy universe.

Name generators

The Online Name Generators covers a lot of different areas. The 3 major categories are:

  • Fantasy generators
  • Nickname generators
  • Business generators

Then I also got a couple of name generators out of categories. They make fake, random and cool band names.

Nickname generators

The nickname generators makes cool nicks and cool online and screen names. From vampire names and pirate names to superhero names and evil names.

Business generators

The business generators aims to make all kinds of good company and business names.

Good business names can't be generated by a computer, but the generators can help you get inspiration and new ideas for new good company and business names. And they can help you to think out of the box, when you are brain storming.

Fantasy generators

The fantasy names generators are designed to make cool fantasy names. The generators uses basic syllables to construct fantasy names.

Character name generator

Many of the generators are character name generators. The character name generators also falls in different categories.

Fantasy character name generator

Half of the fantasy randomizers are character name generators. Character name generators that are coming up with ideas for character names in role playing games. They are naming races like elves, dwarfs, ogres, goblins, trolls, gnomes, magicians, wizards, giants and all the the other creatures and characters you meet in a fantasy universe.

Most of generators are aimed at online gaming and Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games. The remaining randomizers are team, clan and guild generators naming groups of gamers and players rather than individual characters.

Real life character name generator

Both the fake and random name generator are real life character name generator. These character names can be used for both false Internet identities or as character names for 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

All the naming tools are based on modern programming and the latest and fastest web technology.

The programming language is JavaScript which gives high speed and maximum privacy. All scripts are executed locally in your browser on your PC, and is therefore both fast and private.
