A name generator is an online tool or algorithm designed to create unique and personalized names based on user inputs or specified criteria. These generators can produce names for various purposes, such as baby names, pet names, brand names, character names in novels, and more. Users typically provide keywords or prompts, such as gender, cultural background, themes, or name length, and the name generator generates names accordingly. Some name generators also provide additional information about the generated names, such as meaning, origin, and famous people with the same name.
