Why use Namespinner
What makes Namespinner different
Lots of sites offer name pickers or spin-the-wheel tools. Here's why we built Namespinner and what we think makes it worth using.
Free, no signup
Namespinner is free with no registration. You don't hand over your email or create an account. Just open the site, add your names, and spin. We don't limit the number of spins or charge for features.
Truly random
We use cryptographic randomness so every name has an equal chance. No hidden bias, no patterns. The wheel is transparent—everyone can see the spin—so there's no doubt about the result.
Your data stays yours
Your names and lists are stored only in your browser. We don't collect or store them on our servers. That means more privacy and no risk of your class list or giveaway entries being leaked or sold.
Simple and reliable
No apps to download, no complicated settings. The interface is straightforward: add names, spin, remove if needed. The tool works offline after the first load, so it's reliable in schools and at events.
Fewer ads, you can close them
We show ads to keep the site free, but we keep them minimal and let you close the ad area for the rest of your session. We want the wheel to be the focus, not the ads.
