Quick Use Cases
Quick Use Cases
Teachers use this name picker when they need to call on students but want it to be fair.
Coaches use this random name selector for team selection when they're dividing players.

Why This Wheel?
This name picker eliminates favoritism and bias when choosing people. Instead of a teacher always calling on the same students, or a coach picking favorites, the wheel decides randomly. Everyone sees the spin happen on screen, so there's no question about fairness. The visual element makes it more engaging than drawing names from a hat, and people actually trust the result because they watched it happen.
Eliminates Favoritism
Random selection means no bias. Teachers can't play favorites, and coaches can't stack teams.
Transparent Process
Everyone sees the spin happen, so there's no question about whether the selection was fair.
Saves Arguments
No more debates about who should be picked. The name picker wheel decides, and everyone accepts it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I pick multiple people without repeats using the name picker?
Yeah, absolutely. After the name picker selects someone, just remove that name from the list and spin again. That way each person only gets picked once. Keep removing names as you spin until you've picked everyone you need.
How do I use this name picker for team selection?
Add all player names to the wheel. Spin once for Team 1, remove that name, spin again for Team 2, remove that name, and keep alternating. Everyone sees the wheel decide, so no one can complain about unfair teams.
Is this name picker really fair for everyone?
Yes, it's completely fair. Each name has an equal chance of being selected. Everyone can see the spin happen, so there's no question about whether it's random. That's why teachers and coaches trust it for fair selection.
Can teachers use this name picker in the classroom?
Absolutely. Teachers use this name picker to randomly call on students, pick who presents first, or select who answers questions. Kids prefer it because they know it's random, not favoritism. Project it on the board so everyone can see the spin happen.
