What is Fake Names?

A fake name generator produces synthetic names for use in design mockups, test data, and anonymization. All names are randomly generated.

How it works

Names are generated with @faker-js/faker (seeded on demand), drawing only the locale data needed to keep the bundle lean.

Examples

Test data and prototypes

Generate realistic fake names for form testing, mock UIs, and seed data — with configurable locale.

Common mistakes

Treating names as real

Generated names are synthetic and any resemblance to real people is coincidental.

Frequently asked questions

Which locales are available?

Common name pools like US/English and international variants, selectable before generating.

Are names unique?

Not guaranteed — repeats are possible at scale. Add a number suffix if you need unique values.
