Secret Santa generator: draw names privately, no email needed
A Secret Santa name picker for your family, friends or office. Set up a holiday gift exchange on one device, without accounts or email addresses.
Names stay on this device. Use nicknames or numbers. Nothing you enter is sent to a server or saved in browser storage. Refreshing or closing this page clears the draw.
How it’s calculated
The picker shuffles people and allowed recipients with crypto.getRandomValues. It uses backtracking along reassignment paths to find a complete match. Each person gives once and receives once; self-matches and your exclusions are blocked. Separate cycles are allowed. If no complete match exists, it asks you to adjust the exclusions. Random choices do not guarantee that every possible full draw has the same probability.
Secret Santa without email: questions
Can I run Secret Santa without email?
Yes. Enter 3–30 nicknames on one device, add any exclusions, and draw. Pass the device for individual reveals or print folded cards. No emails are collected or sent.
Can the organizer see the matches?
Yes, anyone with this device can reveal any match. Matches start hidden, but there are no passwords. If the organizer is participating, a non-participant should handle printing and folding.
Are names saved or shared?
Names and matches stay in this page’s memory. The tool does not send them to a server, put them in the URL, or save them in browser storage. Refreshing or closing the page clears the draw. Printed cards and files you choose to save remain your responsibility.
