How to randomize names
Enter one name per line or paste a column from Excel or Google Sheets. Blank lines are ignored, outer spaces are trimmed and repeated names remain independent participants.
Enter one participant per line, review the list and generate the order. Everyone stays in the result with an assigned position.
How to decide who starts
Generate the order and use the first position as the starting point. This gives the group a simple, transparent and impartial decision.
