Baby name generator — FAQ
Is the baby name generator free?
Your first name round is free — sign in and generate a set of name ideas on us. Further rounds cost a single credit each from an affordable one-time pack, no subscription.
How does the AI choose names?
It reads the preferences you set — gender, origin, style, first letter, syllable count, theme and even a last name to pair with — and curates a list of fitting names, each with its origin and meaning.
Can I filter by origin or heritage?
Yes. Choose from origins like Hebrew, Latin, Greek, Irish, Japanese, Arabic, Swahili, Yoruba and many more, and the suggestions will honor that heritage.
Can I match a name to my last name?
Yes — enter your surname and the AI will favor first names that flow well with it, so the full name sounds right out loud.
Do the names come with meanings?
Every suggestion arrives with its meaning and origin, and if the name is in our library you can open its full page for pronunciation, popularity, variations and similar names.
Can I choose boy, girl or unisex names?
All three. Set the toggle to girl, boy or either, and combine it with any other filter for a tailored list.
How many names can I generate?
As many rounds as your credits allow — most parents run several, adjusting the filters between rounds until the shortlist feels right.
Can I browse names instead of generating?
Absolutely — visit the baby names hub to browse by letter, origin or theme, or to see the most popular boy and girl names, each on its own detail page.
