How it works

- Choose a task: teams, pick a name, shuffle or who plays whom.
- Press the big button. Press it again for a new random result. Your names stay the same.
Good to know
- Are the teams fair?
- Every name has the same chance to land in any team. Team sizes differ by one at most.
- What is a round robin?
- A plan where everyone plays everyone else once. Choose Who plays whom to make one.
Random Name Picker: Draw a Name from a List
Paste a list of names and pick one at random, for a raffle, a game or whose turn it is. Free random name picker, no sign-up.
Random groups may change each time you generate them. Check that every person appears once in the resulting teams. A round-robin schedule lists pairings; it does not know venue availability or individual constraints.
