Wheel of Names Random Picker
Use our free Wheel of Names to spin a colorful random name picker for classrooms, giveaways, games, teams, contests, and live events. Add names, spin the wheel, and pick a winner instantly.
💡 Enter names or items below—one per line. The wheel updates in real time!
Spinfetti's wheel of names is the fastest way to pick a random name from any list. Just paste your names, hit spin, and the animated wheel does the rest. The result is determined by a cryptographically secure random generator before the animation even starts, so every name has a genuinely equal shot. Teachers use it daily for cold calling students without playing favorites. Event hosts paste in their attendee list and spin on a projector for a live reveal. It works just as well for small lists of 3 or 4 as it does for rosters with 50+ names. You can save multiple lists (one per class period, one for your trivia league, one for family chore assignments) and load them back instantly. The whole thing runs in your browser with zero sign-up, zero cost, and zero data collection. Pick a theme that fits your vibe, turn on sound effects if you want that clicker feel, and spin as many times as you need.
