How to split names into random groups

  1. Paste a list of names, one per line.
  2. Choose the number of groups or the group size.
  3. Select Generate groups.

How this works

The list is shuffled using a fair random algorithm (Fisher-Yates), then evenly distributed into groups — no server or external service is involved, and your list never leaves your browser.

Common use cases

  • Split a classroom into random groups for an activity
  • Randomly assign teams for a sports league or tournament
  • Divide a list of participants into breakout groups

Frequently asked questions

Is this random team generator free?

Yes. It is completely free, with no signup and no limits.

Is my list of names uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything runs entirely in your browser. Nothing is sent to Inqita or stored.

Does this pick one winner, or split into groups?

This splits everyone into groups. If you want to pick a single random winner instead, use the separate Random Wheel Spinner tool.
