Free private decision tool
Find names, then find the right fit.
Use our curated name library as a starting point—not an endless list. Discover names with a similar feel, test how they work with a surname, and compare your own shortlist. Everything stays in your browser.
Name Lab
Give recommendations real-life context.
Adding a surname lets the tool assess rhythm and common sound collisions. It is a writing-and-speaking aid, not a verdict.
Add a surname when you are ready; it is never uploaded.
Tip: type a specific name, then choose “Discover similar names” to explore by sound, style, origin, and meaning.
Your private shortlist
Compare before you commit
Use notes to capture the human reasons behind a name. Surname-fit observations are prompts to say the name aloud, not quality scores.
No names match those filters.
Try removing a filter, or reset and start with a meaning or a name you already like.
How the recommendation tools work
Similar, with a reason
Similarity considers shared theme tags, origin, syllable count, opening letter, and ending sound. It does not invent names or claim that one name is objectively better.
Surname rhythm
The fit view looks at approximate syllable balance and repeated opening or ending sounds. Regional pronunciation varies, so always say the full name in your own voice.
Your shortlist is yours
