Our software name picker first assigns incremental integer IDs to each name you enter, then uses a robust random number generator to produce a number in the range from minimum to maximum. If you picked a lot of names, don't forget that you can easily select them all (Cltr+A on a PC) and them copy and paste as you wish. The maximum names the name picker can pick for you in one go is 1,000. You start in similar fashion to how you would draw one random name from a list, but you need to change the default value of the 'Number of names to pick' field from 1 to as many as you'd like to select from the provided list. It's work is equivalent to rolling a dice with as many sides as there are names - each one has an equal probability to be picked. Then simply press the 'Pick a Random Name' button and let our randomizer do its job. Our random name picker can handle up to 10,000 names. Copy/paste from a spreadsheet works very well.
To generate a single random name, start by feeding the tool with a list of names, one name per row (where 'one name' can consist of first and last name, etc.).
