Fake Name Generator

Generate realistic placeholder names by gender and locale.

Generate realistic placeholder names for testing and design work. Pick a gender and locale (English, Spanish, French) and get any number of first + last name combinations to fill mockups, seed databases or stress-test signup flows.

Common use cases

  • Seed user tables in development and staging databases
  • Populate Figma user-list and avatar mockups with realistic names
  • Generate test data for QA and load-testing scripts
  • Stub directory listings, member rosters and team pages

Frequently asked questions

Are these real people?
No. Names are drawn from common-name lists, but combinations are random — any resemblance to a real person is coincidental.
Can I use these for fraud?
No. They're for software testing and design only; using them to deceive companies or individuals is misuse.
How accurate are the locales?
We use short curated lists of the most common given and family names per locale. Good enough for design and test data, not for sociolinguistic research.
