How to use it

Pick a kind of name and press New names for twelve ideas. Press ☆ Keep on any you like and they move to your list at the bottom, where you can copy the lot. The generators mix and match word lists, so you can press again as often as you like; the same name can come up twice, but a single batch never repeats one.

The five kinds

Team names pair an adjective with an animal or object (Swift Otters, The Cosmic Comets). Duck names are friendly names with an optional title or surname (Captain Puddles, Biscuit McQuack). Band names use short, moody word pairs. Fantasy names build a given name from syllables and add a family name or an epithet, for characters in stories, role-playing games or worlds you are inventing. Pet names are simple, warm names for any animal.

Questions

Is the name I pick free to use? The words are everyday words, so a name can match an existing team, band or business. If you plan to use one for something official, search for it first.
