Random Name Picker Wheel

The Fair and Fun Random Name Picker

Need to select someone from a group without any bias? Our random name picker wheel is the ultimate tool for fair selection. Whether you're a teacher picking students for participation, a manager choosing team leads, or an event organizer drawing contest winners, this name selector ensures everyone gets an equal shot. Just add your names, spin, and let the wheel do the rest!

Why Use a Name Picker Wheel?

Manual selection often leads to accusations of favoritism—even when you're trying to be fair. The random name generator eliminates all bias by using true randomization. There's no way to predict or manipulate the result, making it the perfect choice for high-stakes selections like giveaway winners, scholarship recipients, or team captains. Plus, watching the wheel spin adds genuine excitement that a simple random list sort can't match!

Perfect for Classrooms

Teachers love our name picker wheel for classroom activities:

• Cold calling: Randomly select students to answer questions—everyone stays engaged!
• Group formation: Create random teams for projects and activities
• Presentations: Determine the order for show-and-tell or class presentations
• Rewards: Pick students for prizes or special privileges
• Games: Select who goes first in classroom games

Students actually enjoy the spinner—there's something thrilling about watching it slow down and wondering if it will land on their name!

Ideal for Giveaways and Contests

Running a social media giveaway? Hosting a raffle at an event? Our random name selector makes winner selection transparent and exciting. Paste in all participant names, hit SPIN, and record a video of the selection for proof of fairness. Your followers will love watching the wheel determine the winner live—it's engagement gold!

How the Name Picker Works

This tool uses a cryptographically secure random algorithm to ensure every name has exactly equal odds. Simply type names in the panel (one per line) or paste a list directly. Each name gets its own colorful slice on the wheel. Click SPIN and watch as the name picker wheel accelerates, then gradually slows with realistic physics until it lands on the selected person. The result is always surprising!

Customize Your Selection

The name generator offers flexible options to suit your needs:

• Add unlimited names: Works with lists from 2 to 100+ names
• Remove after selection: Great for eliminating picked names in multiple rounds
• Custom colors: Each name automatically gets a unique color
• Edit on the fly: Add or remove names between spins
