Wheel of Names
Add your names and spin the wheel to pick a random winner. A free, colourful name wheel for giveaways, classrooms and team draws — fair, animated and instant.
How to use the Wheel of Names
Add one name per line in the box — players, students or giveaway entries.
Press “Spin the Wheel” and watch it whirl before slowing to a stop.
The pointer at the top marks the chosen name, shown in big text below.
Copy the winner, edit the list, and spin as many times as you like.
About this tool
The Wheel of Names turns any list into a colourful spinning prize wheel. Type in your names, give it a spin, and let the pointer decide — it is the most exciting way to pick a winner without anyone feeling cheated.
Teachers use it to choose who answers next, streamers use it for giveaways, and offices use it to pick who grabs the coffee. Because the result comes from your browser’s secure random generator, every name on the wheel has exactly the same chance regardless of where it sits.
Frequently asked questions
Is the wheel of names actually random?
Yes. The winning slice is chosen with your browser’s secure crypto random generator before the animation even starts, so the spin is just for fun — every name has an equal chance.
How many names can I add to the wheel?
As many as you like. The wheel re-draws automatically as you type; with very long lists the labels shorten so everything still fits neatly.
Can I remove a winner and spin again?
Just delete the winning name from the box and spin again — handy for drawing 1st, 2nd and 3rd place without repeats.
Are my names saved or uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser. Your list is never sent to a server, stored or shared.
