Random Name Picker
Need to choose one person without awkwardness? Paste names into Spinly, spin the wheel, and let the picker choose. It works for classrooms, games, meetings, chores, giveaways, and small everyday decisions.
How to pick without repeats
After each result, use Remove to take that name off the wheel. Keep spinning until every person has been picked once. This is useful for speaking order, presentation order, and turn taking.
If you need full teams instead of one name, use the Random Team Generator.
Fairness tips
For a fair name picker, use Equal mode and keep one entry per person. If you use weights or sequence mode, tell people because the result is no longer the same as a simple equal draw.
For serious prize draws, follow the rules of the platform or organisation running the giveaway.
