Random Name Generators: UX That Sparks Creativity

Design a name generator that feels playful, useful, and shareable.

Good generators feel like a creative partner. Offer categories (modern, classic, fantasy), quick filters (short/long), and one-click copy. Show five names at a time to keep attention and encourage another roll. Add a ‘lock’ icon to keep one favorite while refreshing the rest—tiny UX touches make users stay longer.
Behind the scenes, combine syllables and curated lists to avoid awkward collisions. Add soft animations on reroll, and store recent outputs so users can compare. A small FAQ—how names are created, tips for brand checking—adds credibility. Internal-link to your ‘Branding Checklist’ post or ‘Text Case Converter’ tool for follow-through.
