How to use this Random Name Picker?

Enter the names of the participants in the text area provided. Each name should be separated by a comma.
Enter the number of names you want to pick in the “Number of names to pick” field. This field is optional, and if left empty, the tool will pick a single name by default.
Click the “Pick Names” button.
The tool will randomly select the number of names you entered (or one name if the field was left empty) and display them in the “Results” section.
If you want to pick a new set of names, simply update the input fields and click “Pick Names” again.

That’s it! It’s a simple tool that can be used for various purposes, such as picking a winner for a contest, choosing a team captain, or even for classroom activities.

How does it work?

To use the Random Name Picker tool, simply enter a list of names separated by commas into the “Enter names” field, and specify how many names you want to randomly select in the “Number of names to pick” field. Click the “Pick Names” button and the tool will randomly select the specified number of names from the list.

The results will be displayed below the button. If you enter more names than the number of names to pick, an error message will be displayed. Enjoy!

Can I enter numbers in place of names?

Sure, you can enter numbers in place of names. However, please remember that the random name picker will treat them as names and select them randomly along with other names if entered both together. Otherwise, it will work similarly as with names.
