I am highly amused that this requires a google+ login. Do they detect their own fake names?

easy_rider2• 13 years ago

does it? Didn't require anything for me..

aestra2• 13 years ago

It does not require a G+ login for 99% of the features.

midas007• 13 years ago

Super useful. Now if it only were to auto-create a G+ profile and scrape to find some profile pics.

kjannis• 13 years ago

For profile pics: http://randomuser.me/

candybar• 13 years ago

Is this legal? Unless those faces are fictional drawings, using someone else's face for a fake profile seems way over the line.

gnu8• 13 years ago

If it had checkboxes for all of the social networks, free email providers, and so on it would go a long way toward setting up false identities.

If it could comb death certificates for names and demographic data rather than randomly generating it, that would be even better.

You'd probably make a fortune selling SaaS contracts to criminals in Russia and Washington.

galapago2• 13 years ago

They even support Klingon names! (after a big scandal [1])

Very useful resource!

I'm curious though, where did you get your Hispanic names from? Seems like they come from a database of funny, weird and probably offensive names. No one is called like that in Spanish-speaking countries, and yes, I know the names are supposed to be fake, but just comparing the Hispanic with the American ones, you can tell there's a big difference.

Whether or not is intentional, it could be even more helpful if you use "normal" names.

Disclaimer: I'm Hispanic.

galapago2• 13 years ago

Yeap, i can confirm. Hispanic surnames are more or less correct, but first names are bizarre.

bromagosa• 13 years ago

Indeed. Tried like 15 times and not a single Hispanic first name didn't make me wiggle.

gus_massa• 13 years ago

I’m from Argentina and also find that the names are very unusual. The usual names vary a lot by country, but I could not even recognize a most of them, and I had to retry about 10 times to get a realistic name.

chevreuil• 13 years ago

Same thing for French : I have not heard of anyone named Brigliador in France, or maybe in some medieval poetry.

eterm• 13 years ago

The England/Wales names are weird too, lots of unusual first names.

Also, Wales seems way over-represented. It has a population that's tiny compared to England, but half the names generated seem to be Welsh names such as Cerys.

warbastard• 13 years ago

Also, I don't know any English/Welsh people who drive a 1992 Pontiac Sunbird.

knorc• 13 years ago

Same for French names. Last names are okay, but first names aren't French at all for most of them. I think maybe you had a list of all possible names, but you didn't take into account that some of them are more frequent than others ?

pbhjpbhj• 13 years ago

I tried the generator with gender:random; nameSet:England+Wales; country:UK.

All but one of the names is a forename of someone I know - that name is Scarlet and it appeared twice in my sample of 20. Only one of the names was 'foreign' though. In my area there would be several Asian names in that sample.

jaimebuelta2• 13 years ago

Yes, I was about to say the same. I tried a few "Hispanic" names and they looked absolutely weird. On the other hand the notion of a "reasonable" Hispanic name can be quite broad. Names in Spain can be very different from names in Argentina (where Italian surnames are quite common) or from US (when it's not uncommon to have an English name with a Spanish last name)

Not sure about that, but other name set can have the same problems if they try to cover a language shared by lots of people (like Arabic)

ArcticCelt• 13 years ago

Yeah I think that trying the bunch all Hispanic names under the same category is part of the problem. There is 400 million native speakers and they are spread over multiple continents, countries and cultures. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Map-Hispanophone_World.png

No surprise that names will widely vary from one place to the other.

nayefc2• 13 years ago

Actually the Arabic one is pretty accurate.

ilbe• 13 years ago

Curious what you find this useful for? Filling out online forms instead making stuff up off the top of your head?

piyush_soni2• 13 years ago

If you are curious, you should always look at the FAQ first :). http://www.fakenamegenerator.com/faq.php . Look at the section: "What can I use the Fake Name Generator identities for?"

pisarzp• 13 years ago

Same for Polish.

Most of names sound Polish, but I never ever heard of anyone called that name.

Also lastnames seem to be missing Polish characters sometimes

hgsigala• 13 years ago

Hispanic here: tried the same thing and had the same reaction. Dampne is not a hispanic name...

ward• 13 years ago

Same in Dutch-Belgium setting. None of the names sounded realistic and when van de/van der or variants were used it was always in lowercase which is a thing from the Netherlands. In Belgium it'll be in capital letters.

easy_rider2• 13 years ago

Hmm no API available (unlike randomuser). We need automated faking!

axefrog• 13 years ago

My thoughts exactly. After seeing the names it generated, along with the the addresses and so forth, I immediately started looking for the link to buy or download the code, database or whatever was on offer. To my disappointment, there was nothing available.

nandhp• 13 years ago

You can place bulk orders of up to 50,000: http://www.fakenamegenerator.com/order.php

ankitoberoi• 13 years ago

Quite useful but the site has ignored about 17.5% of the world population - Indian names are missing.

chewxy• 13 years ago

How very coincidental. This afternoon I was talking to my cofounders about test data generation - and names were one of them.

Here are other resources that we found that were helpful:

- http://www.generatedata.com/

- http://databasetestdata.com

- http://randomuser.me (useful for frontends)

- http://gedis-studio.com/ (not free)

Also, TIL that Hipchat doesn't always pull all the links

CatsoCatsoCatso• 13 years ago

"How very coincidental"

Colour me surprised too. Just 5 minutes ago I was searching for a false name generator. My heart leapt with fright on seeing my recent history at the top of HN.

jlees2• 13 years ago

I still fall back on http://www.rinkworks.com/namegen/ occasionally.

femto113• 13 years ago

Interesting to see this come up. A couple years ago I started and then mothballed a system for generating realistic fake people (which I called golems) using deterministic and reversible algorithms instead of random numbers (it has a bunch of advantages). Got to love heroku's free tier, cause it's actually still on line:

http://golems.herokuapp.com/person/random.json

If anyone's interested in learning more let me know.

  # aptitude install rig

RIG (Random Identity Generator) is a free replacement for a shareware program out there called 'fake'. It generates random, yet real-looking, personal data. It is useful if you need to feed a name to a Web site, BBS, or real person, and are too lazy to think of one yourself. Also, if the Web site/BBS/person you are giving the information to tries to cross-check the city, state, zip, or area code, it will check out.

For those who use Arch Linux, It's already available in the AUR.

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rig/

grannyg00se• 13 years ago

And if you're tired of manually dealing with AUR packages (or just lazy) you might want to look into yaourt [1]. It uses the same syntax as pacman but also searches and installs from AUR.

I just generated an icelandic hobbit and it GAVE ME MY OWN NAME! I actually WTFed out loud.

praptak• 13 years ago

"Privacy concerns on the raise. A hobbit accidentally outed by a web service."

klausjensen• 13 years ago

There are no hobbits in Iceland, duuuh!

Elves, on the other hand...

the_watcher2• 13 years ago

My Hobbit name was from my home town (I'm from a suburb of Palm Springs, not a normal place to randomly generate). What is going on in the Shire?

Gormo• 13 years ago

One of the "hobbit" names it gave me was "Haiduc". I don't think there were ever many hobbits engaged in highway banditry in the Balkans.

croisillon• 13 years ago

Lithuanian names: http://uza.lt/vardai/

It's more of a fun read than anything useful, really

pavanky• 13 years ago

As an Indian I am a bit sad to see Hobbit, Klingon and Ninja in there but no option for Indian names.

kartikkumar• 13 years ago

Share the same sentiment.

Erwin• 13 years ago

Selecting "Hobbit" also adjusts the generated height to around 3 feet!

tragic• 13 years ago

Just as well, probably. If they had Indian, you'd get a Punjabi first name, an Urdu surname, and a 1992 Pontiac Sunbird in your New Delhi driveway.

werid• 13 years ago

The Norwegian name set generates some really strange first names. Plausible surnames though.

dagurp• 13 years ago

Same with Icelandic names. Also, the GPS coordinates were often out at sea or on a mountain. Using openStreetMap it should be easy to generate more plausible coordinates.

justwrote• 13 years ago

There are also faker libraries for various languages, e.g. the famous https://github.com/stympy/faker, https://github.com/fzaninotto/Faker and a little port in Scala (created by me) https://github.com/justwrote/scala-faker

antirez• 13 years ago

Italian names are not realistic.

Try #1: "Dante Marcelo". Dante is a very strange name for an italian, I guess it is used in the US. Marcelo lacks an "l" (it is Marcello) so it sounds Spanish instead.

Try #2: "Berto Trentino". Trentino is realistic but Berto sounds a lot like an abbreviation of "Alberto", so not a real name even if I guess there are people actually named "Berto".

Try #3: "Pupetta Rizzo". Can't imagine somebody called "Pupetta", it is something you say to small children as "Little Doll" or alike.

jaimebuelta2• 13 years ago

Hey! I actually know a "Dante Marcelo"! (but both as given names, he's known as Marcelo). But he's from Argentina (where Marcelo is a relatively common name), not from Italy

kapkapkap• 13 years ago

I think its fair to say that scenarios where a service cancels a user account because his/her name was not "realistic sounding" are few and far between. (Assuming you're not entering names like "Doorknob Toothbrush")

seszett• 13 years ago

Well, the site did generate Iva Lavallée as a French female name for me. I had never heard of someone called Iva, but it seems it's been given to exactly 100 persons in France since 1900.

Iva Lavallée sounds like He's gonna swallow it, really.

nollidge• 13 years ago

My guess is that it's just randomly selecting from a list of names with equal probability, rather than weighting them based on how common they are. So all of these long-tail names are coming up way more often than you'd find in a phone book.

zeidrich• 13 years ago

Yeah, similar is when you get names from Canada and look at the cities.

The first one I get is from Weagamow, ON, which is a North Caribou Lake Indian reservation, with like 900 people in it.

The second I get is from Cornwall, ON, a small city of 45k people, the next is from Orangeville, ON another town of 30k people. Then Wawa, ON, a town of 3k people.

Meanwhile, Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal are all unrepresented.

I just got a person from Byemoor Alberta, a hamlet of 35 people. It says she lives on 1304, 90th Ave, but there's a 1 Ave, a 2 Ave, a 1 St, and a 1 St North. Definitely no 90th Ave.

The most useful tool besides this is http://10minutemail.com/

Edit: Doing a HN search this was posted about a year ago. That is why I probably didn't post it. Should we start submitting reposts of old stuff? I probably missed "cool tools" from years ago.

aestra2• 13 years ago

Me too, and when I do I always blindly copy and paste and end up with very fake looking data... Which doesn't matter to me at all!

lucb1e• 13 years ago

Don't know where you live, but the Dutch government publishes spreadsheets with testdata. It contains names, middle names, addresses, domestic and foreign names, etc. No need to generate your own. I haven't had to use it yet and I didn't have a very good look, but I'd think it contains all sorts of exceptional cases which your system needs to handle. If it successfully processes that spreadsheet, it probably handles anything.

gilney• 13 years ago

Brazilian names are quite convincing.

mdemare• 13 years ago

Hmm, in my experience, 85 yo Dutch women are unlikely to drive a Mazda Miata. Although maybe mine examiners are more thrill-seeking than the average 85 yo. Fun!

Tarential• 13 years ago

While this is very interesting, the profiles may need to be "tweaked" a bit to be realistic. For example, the first profile it generate for me was a:

-Female

-Fitness instructor

-Weighing 205.9 lbs

-Standing 5 feet 1 inch

Individually, any of these things might be ok. Any three could even be possible. All four, however, just doesn't seem to work.

peterwwillis2• 13 years ago

The occupations do seem the most likely to cause suspicion. Some of them are trades where you have to be licensed or registered to have that occupation, so a quick search would prove the person does not exist, or at least is lying about their job.

Then there's the automobile, which could also raise red flags. A Fiat Tempra driven in the USA would probably be suspicious to anyone who knows that Fiats probably weren't sold in the US in 1994, for example. And it might be weird for a clerk to be driving a 2010 Infinity...

Back in the BBS days there used to be programs written to auto-generate identities in bulk, for reasons i'm not aware of. They were designed to minimize scrutiny because there might be humans actually looking at the data you used, since there was less automation in terms of processing accounts back then.

qbrass• 13 years ago

I'm not sure why National Auto Parts would needs a Perianesthesia nurse who runs a website called SuicideLaws.com, but they seem to be paying him well enough to drive 1992 Ferrari 512 TR.

optymizer1• 13 years ago

Russian first names (not Cyrillic) are very strange: "Innocent Korovin" - really? Russian (cyrillic) seem more realistic though.

raphinou• 13 years ago

There's a problem with Belgium: it generates street names in flemish for cities in the french speaking part of the country. Makes it obvious the address is fake.

Guillaume86• 13 years ago

Noticed it too, and it looks city-street are unique combinations (one street by city).

blt• 13 years ago

It uses non-USA cars for the USA. We don't have the Chevrolet Matiz or Holden Senator here.

sentenza2• 13 years ago

On first glance, the whole thing looked very shady to me, since the web pages it generates look like this:

BakingBrokers.com

but it seems they are all non-registered domains, so it is indeed not a scam (and Baking is not quite Banking).

Would be a funny trick, though. Get a lot of people to use your identity generator in order to produce some backlinks.

I was wondering about that, especially because of the call out to activate your fake email address.

I wonder what database they are using for the ZIP codes. I tried googling around a bit and only found a bunch of "pay X$ to get all US ZIP codes". I'm pretty sure I've found these before for an ERP project I worked for...maybe the CIA? database (I distinctly remember they had some pretty good stuff)

I thought there were plenty of those available freely.

allochthon2• 13 years ago

The fascinating thing about fake names is that they often seem to be a little off, somehow, even when they draw from real names. Hard to put my finger on it.

soneca• 13 years ago

Brazilian names are perfect! Names, cities, phones, etc, everything so realistic!

As people are complaining of weird spanish, french, italian names, I wonder if the person who did this is brazilian.

aylons• 13 years ago

The names are indeed realistic, but some details are not.

First are cars: most tests I made produced cars that are not sold in Brazil, althought some did.

The lack of apartment or similar data in most addresses will not raise suspicion in the US, where most people live at houses, but it will surely jump to the attention of anyone looking at the database in Brazil. Not to say, it won't test most DBs properly as we commonly store apartment numbers in a dedicated column.

The English name of the companies also won't help.

GyrosOfWar• 13 years ago

The German names are all rather convincing, except for the sometimes lacking umlauts. (interestingly, only in the surnames) No one is called Jager here, unless they anglicized their name for some reason (Jäger is German for Hunter).

xioxox• 13 years ago

I don't need this website. I can go through the thousands of pages of wiki spam I've been hit with. I don't know why they think my wiki would have pages describing random teenagers from Germany who enjoy horseriding in their spare time and were medical equipment mechanics. Presumably these spammers must be using a similar database to this website.

The lack of unemployed people generated seems a bit unlike real life, however.

joeframbach• 13 years ago

First was a female dietitian, 5'7" and pushing 200lbs. Sounds like a great dietitian.

Next one had a hometown right down the road from me. Cool. She's 53 years old but her SSN starts with 180. PA's SSN range is 159 to 211, and everyone else my age has SSNs starting with 178. SSNs are assigned in-order. See the problem? Her SSN ought to be in the 160s I reckon.

Next was a 70-y/o timber and logging worker. I don't believe it.

evan_• 13 years ago

Maybe she has a glandular disorder, or she's a special kind of dietitian who works mainly with sumo wrestlers, or she's 7' tall.

bhaile• 13 years ago

Interesting...one of the choices is Eritrean. Small country in East Africa. Names are pretty close to the region as well so I'm surprised.

jber• 13 years ago

I love it! ;) Just afraid that many trolls will use it...

possibilistic• 13 years ago

Why are social security numbers generated? That seems necessary for supporting only dubious kinds of behavior.

Aren't SSNs only useful for banking/credit-type services? (Perhaps someone can enlighten me.)

belorn• 13 years ago

I can think of several good reason, but the two main ones are: Testing and to use at registration-burden websites that collects personal information as their business model.

mbrameld• 13 years ago

My guess is because they are also geo-dependent. Your fake person gets a valid SSN for where they are from.

jtheory2• 13 years ago

Eh, SSNs aren't linked to location in any usable way. Obviously your SSN will not change when you move cross-country (so they're not linked to current address), and I think they're only based on the mailing address entered when the card was applied for, which may not even be where you were born.

seanhandley• 13 years ago

A lot of the vehicles make/models are not typical cars you'd see on British roads i.e. the marketing name is for another country, even if the vehicle itself is largely the same.

pierlux• 13 years ago

French Canada names are not typical. Here are examples: François Tremblay Marc Gagnon Diane Côté Line Dion

CanSpice• 13 years ago

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or not. The first three are pretty common French Canadian names. The last one isn't.

Francois Tremblay is the name of a goalie from Baie-Comeau.

Marc Gagnon is the name of an Olympic gold-medal winning speedskater from Chicoutimi.

There are a couple of dozen Diane Cotes from Canada on LinkedIn.

11001• 13 years ago

At least with Russian names, the algorithm seems to apply a uniform probability distribution over all names in its database. It results in way too many extremely rare names. In other words, a batch of Russian names generated using this program would not look statistically realistic.

mynegation• 13 years ago

Yes, a lot of archaic names which are very rare. Also, Russia is multinational country, so Russian (as in ethnicity) and Russian (as in nationality/citizenship) names are different things. A lot of names (but not family names) are actually Tatar, Armenian etc. A combination of that name with typical Russian family name is not unheard of, but pretty rare to attract the attention which is the last thing you want if you use fake name for any serious purpose.

shitgoose• 13 years ago

Russian names - Ramiro? Rice?? Nicodemus???

Where the hell did they get those from:)

tommis• 13 years ago

Finnish names were very good. Only thing that was a little off was the car models, which seemed very US centric. Car models have lot of regional variants (big differences in naming US vs EU vs Asia)

I wrote a library in JavaScript for the browser and Node.js called Chance to generate user info and other random things:

This is interesting, but the names are probably just pulled from US census data. If you want something to generate new names, try
