How to play
- Type or paste names in the list — one per line.
- Click Spin (or the wheel) to pick a random winner.
- Enable remove-once-picked to avoid repeats, or Shuffle to reorder.
- Keep spinning until everyone has had a turn.
Paste or type one name per line and spin the wheel — the picker chooses a winner fairly and lands them under the pointer. Turn on remove once picked to draw names without repeats (perfect for raffles, classroom questions, or deciding who presents first at standup). Everything runs in your browser; your list is never uploaded.
Frequently asked questions
- Is the name picker truly random?
- Yes — each spin picks a winner uniformly at random from the remaining names, and the wheel animation is driven by that result, so the name under the pointer is always the true pick.
- Can I stop the same name being picked twice?
- Yes. Enable the remove-once-picked option and each winner is taken off the wheel, so every name is drawn exactly once — ideal for raffles and taking turns.
- Is my list of names uploaded anywhere?
- No. The wheel runs entirely in your browser; names never leave your device.
