Name Dice has received numerous 5-star reviews from writers of all ages and levels!
“I have NEVER been able to come up with names out of the blue when I'm in full writing mode! Sometimes I even put symbols in the text for names so I don't have to interrupt the flow of the story. With Name Dice, problem solved, quickly and easily. There's no complicated thing you need to do to open or close the app. Just a couple of taps and you have a random name for your character before you can say 'Holy Shakespeare!'” - E D Stewart
“This app is definitely one of my favorites. I've never really been that good with creating names for anything but the app more than makes up for my weak point. Most if not all names fit together perfectly and sound natural. There are no forced or absurd names each name is so strong that I feel as if the character practically comes to life as soon as I read it.” - Keystat

Nice, could be much better! It's a great idea and well made. Certainly useful as it is. But, as others have noted, there should be some way to chose the gender of the name. It would be even better if you could add/delete names of your own!

Awesome App This app is very useful for writers who cannot come up with a name off the top of their heads. Some people complain about it being inconvenient that there isn't an option to choose whether you get a girl or guy name, but I personally like it combined. Especially if you need a random character to just, say, bump into another character. If anything needs to be done to this app, I'd suggest adding more names. While this isn't an absolute need, it would be nice to have the chance to get different names.
