Ways to use a random name picker
Teachers use it to call on students fairly. Team leads use it to assign tasks without bias. Streamers use it to choose a random viewer. It's the same fair, unbiased randomness as drawing a name from a hat — just faster.
Can I add duplicate names for weighted odds?
Yes — add a name multiple times (once per line) to increase its chance of being picked, similar to adding extra raffle tickets.
Is the randomization fair?
Yes. Every name in the list has an exactly equal chance of being selected, using your browser's random number generator.
