You can add an input field, get the value (the input) from with javaScript and then use the inputted name in any way you want to in combination with different word arrays. And you can also make a check on the input field to validate if the user actually did fill it. All can be done with rather simple JavaScript, if you got the basic understanding of it. Good luck.

They are aimed at beginners, but you never know, how well it works out before some one has tried them and take the time to give some feedback. Thanks for getting back to me, Suzanne. :)

I appreciate it. I was pretty proud of myself having figured that out by myself from your scripts. First time I've ever done anything like that! Was fun. Going to make another one soon as I add to the list for that one. Thank you for getting back to me so quickly and for the compliment! I appreciate it.

Cool horse name generator you have made. :) Unfortunately there's no way you can hide your code and name arrays with a name generator coded in JavaScript. JavaScript is executed in the user browser and therefore all code, including the name arrays are loaded to the browser when you load the page. There might be some way though you can obfuscate the arrays, but tech users will still be able to copy them. But I can't help on that subject, because I don't know much about it. If you wanna give out only a single name at the time you must make a server side programmed name generator. Eg in php, asp, .net etc. Just as easy to make, but much much slower to use because the is called every time the user wants to make a new name. Hi Suzanne.

I used your script to name my own generator and I'm very excited to publish it. Thank you! One question: How can I hide my name lists from the Right-Click/View Page Source clickers of the world? I work very hard to come up with unique names and would prefer they not be stolen all in one fail swoop. Thank you so much! Please feel free to write a review on my generator (as you noted above)!

I've been searching for a while for a script that came with easy instructions. The script is going to liven up my geofiction project. However, I was wondering if you are willing to also share the how-to / code for creating the list of names from the generator? -Tina Helllo Neils
