Online Name Generators

The name generators is a 1 man hobby project started 10 years ago.

Now I have found time to update and modernize both the name generators and all the tech behind.

The online name generators are based on a "keep it simple" philosophy. From the simple user interface and one click name generation to the vanilla JavaScript laying underneath. Making it easy for users to use and for me to maintain.

The purpose of it all is off course to provide some cool and fun nicknames for your online life.

If you find a cool generator, please help me and share it with your friends. :-)

More about the project and the guy behind.

Nickname Generators

At the online-generator.com you can make all kind of cool online nicknames with a single click. The name generators comes in several different flavors. You can make funny superhero nicks, mysterious fantasy names, creative project names or funky bandnames.

Just pick your favorite name generator and start making online nicks for your favorite games, your friends and your projects.

Everything is really simple. No forms to fill. Just click the big generate button. All the names are saved to a list, so you won't miss any of them, even if your get carried away with some speed clicking. ;-)

You can click the names on the save list to check if the corresponding domain is available. It opens a new window and a domain availability check is instantly performed for you by an external partner.

Cool Names

I love cool names. And my main goal is off course to make cool names. But what is cool? It very often boils down to personal preference and background. Furthermore a cool online nickname is very different from a cool band or business name.

But good names share certain qualities over bad names. First of all a good name is catchy and create inner images. It will tell stories, is powerful and easy to remember and pronounce.

It's hard enough for us humans to come up with new creative and cool names. Things only get harder, when you try to do it with some rather simple JavaScript commands. Randomness to the rescue!

Random Name Generation

Unrestricted randomness is the only benefit a coded name generator has to humans when it comes to making new names. But pure random name generation would result in meaningless output and words hard to both pronounce and remember. You have to somehow restrict the randomness.

In name generator you do that with long lists of words and names, that are combined in different patterns according to the underlying mathematical algorithms

It's the right mixture of catchy words and mathematical random algorithms that gives variation and the randomness makes the surprising combinations.

In total all the online name generators are capable of making more than 25,000,000 random and unique names. Going from funny online nicks to more serious project names and brands!

Name generator categories

The generators can roughly be divided into 3 major categories after their primary uses. You can find cool online nicknames with the nickname generator, superhero generator or the pirate generator.

You can get ideas and inspiration to make creative company names and brands with the business generator, brand or project name generator.

Finally you can create epic fantasy names with the fantasy generator, clan generator and the evil name generator. Lots of cool fantasy names to use in your role playing games and for all your role RPG characters.

Domain availability check

From all of the generators you can now perform a domain availability check directly from the save list. Just pick the names you would like to domain check, click them to find out if the specific or any corresponding domains are available.

If the domain is already in use alternative domains and top level domains are suggested based on your initial request.
