The Wheel Name Picker is a free, easy-to-use random spinner designed for Australian teachers, classrooms, families, games and anyone who needs a fun and fair way to make a decision. Alongside the wheel you'll find a free coin flip, dice roller and lotto number generator — all on this one page.
Select a preset mode from the coloured buttons at the top. Choose from Names, Numbers, Colours, Yes/No, Chores, What's for Dinner, Venue Picker, Day Picker, Games, or Custom. Each mode loads a ready-made list so you can start spinning immediately. Need to pick a random weekday for an activity or competition? The Day Picker has Monday through Sunday ready to go.
Use the panel on the right to add, remove or shuffle items. Type a name or item into the input box and press Add or hit Enter. Want a picture wheel instead? Tap the 📷 button to attach a photo to your next item — great for picking between meals, toys, activities or even photos of your kids or students. Your list updates the wheel instantly and automatically adjusts the segments.
Click the big SPIN button and watch the wheel go, with a sound effect and the wheel slowing to a stop on a randomly selected item. Or scroll down to flip a coin for heads or tails, roll one or two dice, or generate a free set of lucky dip lotto numbers. Every result is shown clearly with sound effects you can mute any time.
After a name is picked, click Remove from wheel to take it off so it won't be picked again. This is perfect for classroom roll calls, competition draws and games — work through the whole list without repeating anyone. Use Reset All to bring everyone back for the next round.

A random spinner wheel is one of the most versatile classroom and family tools available. Here are creative ways Australian teachers, families and organisers are using the Wheel Name Picker:

For competitions and games, a random spinner, dice roll or coin flip ensures fairness that everyone can see and trust.
