How to pick a random name

A random name picker takes a list of names and chooses one at random — no bias, no "eeny-meeny", no arguments. Teachers use one to call on students, managers to pick who presents, and streamers to draw giveaway winners.

Three steps

1. Open the Spinner and type or paste one name per line. 2. Press Spin — the wheel decelerates and lands on a name. 3. Hit Copy share link to send the exact list to anyone; the wheel is stored in the URL.

Draw an order with no repeats

Turn on Remove winner after each spin and each pick is removed from the wheel, so you can spin down a full list to get a random order — great for presentation order or a bracket seeding.
