What the random noun generator does

The tool selects random words from two lists. One list holds common nouns like apple or river. The other holds proper nouns like Paris or Tesla. You can get singular forms, plural forms, or a mix. Each list uses simple rules to build plurals. Irregular words get correct forms like men and mice.

The generator picks words without repeats in one run. Every click creates a fresh set. Results work well for writing prompts, word games, study drills, and idea sprints.

Inputs explained

Number of nouns to generate

Type a whole number from 1 to 50. The tool accepts only numbers. If the value falls outside that range, you see a red message. The message says please enter a number between 1 and 50.

Noun type

All Types pulls from both lists. Common Nouns Only returns general words for things, places, or ideas. Proper Nouns Only returns names of people, brands, places, and events.

Form

Singular gives base words like apple or London. Plural adds s or es where needed, with rules for endings like y or f. Irregulars change to standard forms like children, teeth, or geese. Mixed flips a coin for each word to decide its form.

Reading your results

The output shows a title with the count. Your nouns appear in a clear list that separates each item. You get no duplicates in one run. The order changes with every click.

Common nouns appear in lowercase. Proper nouns appear with capitals in the proper filter mode. The count beside the title tells you how many items the tool returned.
