Secret Santa Name Drawer

Type everyone's names, add any pairs who should not draw each other, and draw. Nobody gets their own name. Names never leave your device.

Players

Results

Press Draw names.

Tip: the organizer can screenshot this, then send each person only their own match, or use the hide button and reveal one at a time.

Running a gift exchange? The Secret Santa Kit has printable sign-up sheets, wish-list cards and gift tags. For party games, see White Elephant Gift Exchange Games or the Christmas Party Bundle. Browse the store.

How to use it

Enter one name per line. If spouses or roommates should not draw each other, add them as a pair in the second box (both directions are blocked). Press Draw names for a random match where everyone gives one gift and gets one gift. Press it again for a fresh draw. Set a limit everyone can afford; see how much to spend on Secret Santa.

Questions

Does the drawer send emails?

No. It runs only in your browser and stores nothing, so the organizer shares each result privately.

Can someone draw their own name?

No. The drawer only accepts draws where nobody gets themselves and blocked pairs are respected.

What if no valid draw exists?

With too many blocked pairs or very few people, there may be no valid draw. Remove a pair or add a player.
