Generate random letters with vowel, consonant or case filters.

Generate random letters from the English alphabet with optional filters for vowels, consonants, or a single case. Useful for word games, classroom activities, brainstorming prompts and anything that needs a quick alphabetic pick.

Common use cases

  • Pick a starting letter for word games like Scattergories
  • Run alphabet warm-ups and prompts in classrooms
  • Generate random initials for placeholder data
  • Spark brainstorming sessions with a fresh letter prompt

Frequently asked questions

Is each letter equally likely?
Yes — every letter in the chosen pool has equal probability. With no filter, that's 1 in 52 (uppercase + lowercase).
Can I pick a custom alphabet?
Not yet — A-Z (with vowel/consonant/case filters) is supported now. Custom alphabets are on the roadmap.
Why use crypto randomness for letters?
Overkill, technically — but it's the most defensible default. There's no observable bias even at huge sample sizes.
