    About full names

    A believable full name pairs a first name and a surname from the same place: Takashi Tanaka, Olga Ivanova or Emmanuel Bello read as real people, while names mixed from different origins at random rarely do.

    Both parts come from Wikidata records of people with that citizenship: the 400 most common first names per gender and 600 surnames per country. Pick an origin and a gender, or leave both on Any for a mix.

    How to choose full names

    For a character, pick the origin first, then the gender.

    Use First name only or Last name only when you already have half of the name.

    Save a few and read them aloud in a sentence before you choose.

    Frequently asked questions

    Where do the names come from?

    From Wikidata: first names and surnames of real people with the citizenship you pick, the most common ones.

    Which origins are there?

    39, from American and British to Japanese, Nigerian and Brazilian. Countries with too few recorded names are left out so the results stay realistic.

    Can I use these names for characters?

    Yes. They are common names, not real people: the first and last parts are combined at random.

    Are these full names free to use?

    Yes. Use them anywhere, without credit or sign-up.

    Can I add numbers or change how the names are written?

    Yes. In Filters, Add numbers puts 1 to 4 random digits or a year at the end, at the start or on both ends. Letters switches to lowercase or UPPERCASE, and Starts with and Length narrow the list. Copy and save keep the changed version.
