What is a Random Name Generator?
A random name generator creates fictional but realistic names including titles (Mr., Mrs., Dr., etc.), first names, and last names. Our tool uses localized name databases to generate culturally appropriate names for different languages and countries.
All generated names are completely fictional and should be used only for testing, development, privacy protection, character creation, and educational purposes.
Common Uses for Random Names
- _ Software Testing: Populate user databases with realistic test data
- _ Privacy Protection: Use fake names instead of real identities online
- _ Character Creation: Generate names for fictional characters in stories, games, or role-playing
- _ Form Testing: Validate name input fields and formatting
- _ Demo Accounts: Create sample user profiles for presentations
- _ Education: Teach database operations without using real personal data

Technical Details: How We Generate Random Names
Our name generator uses locale-specific name databases containing thousands of authentic first names, last names, and titles for each supported culture. Names are selected using cryptographically secure random sampling to ensure unbiased distribution across the database. Gender filtering applies database constraints to return only names matching the selected gender.
// Name generation algorithm Algorithm: Locale-Based Random Name Selection For each name: 1. Select locale database (en_US, fr_FR, es_ES, etc.) 2. Apply gender filter if specified 3. Randomly select title from locale-appropriate list 4. Randomly select first_name from filtered database 5. Randomly select last_name from filtered database 6. Combine: [title] [first_name] [last_name] Database structure per locale: - titles[] = ["Mr.", "Mrs.", "Dr.", "Ms.", ...] - first_names_male[] = [locale-specific names] - first_names_female[] = [locale-specific names] - last_names[] = [locale-specific surnames] Randomization: CSPRNG ensures uniform distribution
