A really nicely put together tool!

The use of a "ring buffer" to display the generated names was a really nice way of balancing the ability to look at previous generated names while not being potentially overwhelming like a list box of the complete history might be.

I could also see this tool potentially being useful for designers/developers too when creating mock-ups or documentation. Could be cool to have an option to render the names into pre-made "chat message", "game lobby" and/or "social media" template images too.

FROSTCHEF signing off! :D

Best thing ever! UI is so soft and bubbly

Endless potential, pretty UI. I really like the font!

This is a lot of fun. Could definitely see using it for login-names on characters' emails and chatrooms.

I imagine this saves a lot of time in some contexts and the UI is pretty to look at, really cool entry! I maybe would have wished the possibility to generate lists of names and save them at a time :)

Nice tool, can be helpful sometimes .

Simple and effective. Great project idea and execution!
Copy to clipboard is nice, another use case could be exporting a list for if you wanted a lot of viable usernames (say a fake mmo/chatroom game... or actually the new idea of bots in online games)

Good going!

Overall pretty good project, I really love the overall UI and aesthetics of the project, the name generation seems pretty effect, but there might not be enough variation, because it happened in a lot of cases that I got the exact same name after 5 clicks. Perhaps a bigger pre-set list or ensuring a name with the same components doesn't appear again for a while could work to fix that.

Overall really well done. I especially like that you have a button that can directly copy to clipboard.

There is a pretty big list of stuff but I did notice that occasionally it will pick the same things so I'll look into making the rng seed better, or account for repeats if I get the chance

Thank you so much for the feedback, really appreciated!
