generate-random-username

generate-random-username

A tiny package to generate a random username from a list of adjectives and animals.

This package will generate close to 200k different unique usernames, even more with digits appended. The wordlist has been manually reviewed to ensure the words are appropriate for use in a username.

Options exist for a custom separator between the username, adding random digits, and capitalizing the words in the username.

Install

npm install generate-random-username
