Tool Guide

Online Random Name Picker (Supports Picking Multiple Names at Once)

This is a free, easy-to-use online random name picker that supports randomly selecting names from a list. It can be used for classroom roll call, random speaking assignments in meetings, team task allocation, annual party lucky draws, and more. The tool supports picking one or multiple names at a time, defaulting to one, helping you quickly complete fair, visual random selection.

Compared with traditional manual roll call, this random name picker is simpler to operate: enter the list and start with one click. It supports clicking an area or pressing the spacebar to start/stop, and displays the already-picked and to-be-picked lists in real time—ideal for teacher roll call, training check-in, and event interaction.

To temporarily save your list content, you can store the name list in the WebNote online clipboard and paste it directly to continue next time.

Core Feature Highlights

1. Multiple random selection support: You can customize the "number to pick" and select multiple names at once—ideal for group questioning, having multiple people come on stage, multiple winners, and similar scenarios.

2. Custom separator support: The multi-name result can use a separator of your choice (default is the enumeration comma "、"), making it convenient for classroom projection and event display.

3. Toggle repeat picking: You can switch to "Allow Repeats" mode; when repeats are not allowed, a picked name is automatically removed from the to-be-picked list.

4. Full-screen display support: Press F11 to quickly play in full screen—ideal for classroom big screens, meeting room screens, and event projection.

5. Style customization support: You can set the switching interval, font size, text color, background color, font weight, and font name for a clearer display.

Steps to Use the Online Random Name Picker

Step 1: Click "Set List," paste your name list (one name per line), and the system will automatically remove blank lines and organize the list.

Step 2: Set the parameters, adjusting the number to pick, the name separator, the switching interval, whether to allow repeats, and the display style as needed.

Step 3: Click the "Start/Stop" button, or click the picker area directly to start scrolling; click again to stop and lock the result.

Step 4: View the "Picked List" and "To-Be-Picked List," then continue with the next round of random picking or reset to start over.
