# Username and name generator

Generate usernames, project names or pronounceable fake words.

## How it works

Generates usernames by combining an adjective and a noun, or produces pronounceable invented words by alternating consonant and vowel patterns.

Pronounceable generation follows syllable structure rather than picking random letters. A random string like "xkqrtz" is unusable; alternating consonant clusters with vowels produces things like "varnith" or "kelmo" that can be said aloud and remembered, which is the only reason to generate a name rather than a password.

Names are generated locally and none are checked for availability, since that would require contacting a service. Anything generated may already be taken.

A caution worth stating: do not use a generated username as a password. It comes from a small, predictable vocabulary and carries far less entropy than its length suggests.

> This tool runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you enter is sent to a server, logged or stored, and the page keeps working with the network disconnected.

## Common questions

### Are these usernames available?

No idea — checking would require contacting each service, and nothing here leaves your browser. Assume anything memorable is taken.

### Can I use one as a password?

No. Generated names come from a small vocabulary and have far less entropy than their length implies. Use the password generator.
