Your names will appear here.

How it works

Each name pairs a describing word with a noun, drawn from a word list written for that style. Nothing is repeated within a single draw.

Tech leans on engineering vocabulary, Playful goes for the light-hearted, Epic reaches for the dramatic, and Animal does what it says.

Picking a name that works

A team name gets read aloud from a stage, typed into a submission form and printed on a certificate. Short beats clever: two words that a host can pronounce on the first try will serve you better than something that needs explaining.

If a name has to be spelled out over a microphone, it is the wrong name.

Questions

Are the names unique?
Names are combined from word lists, so two teams anywhere in the world could land on the same one. Within a single draw there are no duplicates.
Can I use these commercially?
Yes. Take any name you like — there is nothing to attribute and no strings attached.
Is anything stored?
No. Everything happens in your browser.
