Random Order Generator

Randomise the order of a list of names or items.

How to use Random Order Generator

1. Enter Names or Items. 2. Browser pseudorandom choices are for everyday examples and organisation. Results can repeat between runs; this does not provide a certified lottery, secure secret or audited draw. Entries are non-empty trimmed lines. Blank lines are ignored; repeated entries remain separate row slots unless the tool explicitly removes duplicates. Commas inside a line are retained. Every input row appears once in the result; repeated labels remain repeated. 3. Select Generate or press Enter from a single-line field. In multiline text fields, Enter inserts a line break. 4. Select Copy result to copy the answer, or Reset to clear the form and result.

Why use this tool?

Use Random Order Generator when you need randomised order. Browser pseudorandom choices are for everyday examples and organisation. Results can repeat between runs; this does not provide a certified lottery, secure secret or audited draw. Entries are non-empty trimmed lines. Blank lines are ignored; repeated entries remain separate row slots unless the tool explicitly removes duplicates. Commas inside a line are retained. Every input row appears once in the result; repeated labels remain repeated.

How the calculation works

Shuffle all entered row slots using Fisher–Yates order. Browser pseudorandom choices are for everyday examples and organisation. Results can repeat between runs; this does not provide a certified lottery, secure secret or audited draw. Entries are non-empty trimmed lines. Blank lines are ignored; repeated entries remain separate row slots unless the tool explicitly removes duplicates. Commas inside a line are retained. Every input row appears once in the result; repeated labels remain repeated.

Example

Worked example: Names or Items = "Alice". Result: Alice.

Practical tip

Check the random order input and output convention before reusing the result.
