Pick a random name

Paste your names or entries, one per line, choose how many winners you want and press Pick. Winners are drawn without repeats, so nobody wins twice in the same draw, using your browser's secure random number generator.

Leave names in twice if you want to give someone more tickets, or count each name once. Remove the winners from the list to draw again for the next prize. A link can carry your list to another device in the address fragment, which is never sent to a server.

Random Name Picker — frequently asked questions

Is the draw fair?
Yes. Winners are chosen with your browser's cryptographically secure random number generator and an unbiased shuffle, so every entry in the list has the same chance. For a formal, audited prize draw you may need a certified service.
Are my names uploaded?
No. The list is drawn in your browser. Unless you turn the option off, the list and the recent results are kept in this browser's storage on your device. A shared link holds the names in the part after the # sign, which browsers do not send to the server.
How many names can I use?
Up to 500 entries of up to 80 characters each, and up to 50 winners in one draw. Blank lines are ignored, and you can choose whether repeated names count once or give extra chances.
