Frequently Asked Questions
General & Account
Do I need an account to use the site?
No, you can browse names and use the basic search without an account. However, creating a free account allows you to save favorites, build a shortlist, track your voting history, and use advanced tools.
Is my shortlist private?
Yes, your shortlist is completely private to your account unless you explicitly choose to share it with a partner using our collaborative features.
How do I delete my account?
You can delete your account at any time by going to your Profile settings, selecting the 'Privacy & Data' tab, and clicking the 'Delete Account' button. Please note this action is irreversible.
Can I link multiple social accounts (Google, Facebook) to one profile?
Currently, each social login creates a unique account based on the email provided by that service. We recommend consistently using one method to keep all your favorites in one place.
Names & Database
How do you determine name meanings?
Our team of linguists and cultural historians research every name using a variety of academic sources, historical texts, and linguistic databases to ensure the most accurate etymological roots.
Can I suggest a name that is not in your database?
Absolutely! You can use our 'Submit a Name' feature. Once submitted, our team will research and verify the name before adding it to our primary database.
How often do you update the popularity rankings?
Our internal popularity metrics are updated daily based on user interactions on the site. Official government data (like SSA rankings in the US) is updated annually when new data is released.
Features & Tools
What is 'Name DNA'?
Name DNA is our proprietary algorithm that analyzes your naming preferences to find other names with similar styles, origins, and vibes.
How can I search for names by specific origins?
You can use the 'Advanced Search' page to filter names by one or multiple origins. Alternatively, you can explore our origin-specific pages (e.g., /origin/celtic) to browse names from a particular culture.
Still have questions?
Our team is always here to help you navigate your naming journey.
