Wheel of Names

Spin a random name wheel for raffles, classrooms, and team picks — entirely in your browser.

Wheel of Names lets you spin a random name wheel for raffles, classrooms, and team picks — entirely in your browser. It runs free in your browser on FileToolsHub — your input is not uploaded.

About Wheel of Names

Wheel of Names on FileToolsHub spins a random name picker for classrooms, standups, raffles, and icebreakers. Enter one name per line, spin, and the pointer lands on a fair random winner — no apps to install.

The wheel is drawn in your browser with canvas animation. Names never leave your device. Add or remove entries between spins; very long lists still work, with labels shortened on the wheel for readability.

Related utilities include random number, password, UUID, and lorem generators when you need other quick picks or fillers. Open the Text tools category or sitemap for the full generator set.

Share /tool/wheel-of-names with teammates so everyone uses the same lightweight picker instead of a third-party spinner with ads.
