What is a wheel of names? 

A random name picker is a tool that helps you select a name at random from a list you provide. It is completely objective and unbiased - the outcome is based purely on chance.

For example, during a group meeting, if no one wants to be the first to present, let the random name picker decide! As the selection process begins, the whole group can watch with anticipation to see who the “lucky” person chosen will be!

How to use the wheel of names?

Setting up a wheel name generator takes seconds:

• Step 1: Drop the list of names into the box.
• Step 2: Hit the "Spin the wheel" button.
• Step 3: Watch the wheel do its thing and wait for the final reveal!

Pro-tip: Want to make it extra? Customize the colors, adjust the spin time, or add profile pictures to the slots. Save your favorite spin wheel and share the link to invite the whole group to join in the fun!
