Spinning Wheel Picker — Random Name Picker
Need to pick a winner fairly? This free spinning wheel name picker takes your list, spins a colorful wheel with a pointer, and announces the winner in big text. Great for classroom draws, giveaways, raffle winners, and team decisions.
6 names on the wheel
Press Spin
How to use
- Type or paste your names into the text box, one name per line, then press Spin the wheel.
- Watch the pointer while the wheel slows down — the winner appears in big text below.
- Press Remove winner and spin again to draw a second name without repeating the first.
- Use Load sample to try it instantly, or Clear all to start with an empty list.
Tips
- For a raffle, paste your full entrant list and remove each winner as you draw so nobody wins twice.
- Use it in class to pick who answers first — students pay more attention when the wheel is spinning.
- Duplicate lines count as separate slices, so repeated names get a bigger chance on purpose.
- Share your screen and spin slowly a second time to build excitement for big giveaways.
- Prefer a list-based draw with duplicate cleanup? The Raffle Winner Picker supports multi-round draws and keeps a draw history log.
