When to use it
When you've got a strong set of names but can't pick just one, put them on the wheel. Spin to see a highlighted option. This can help you feel out your true preference for each name.
Feeling stuck on baby names? Add a mix of styles to the wheel—classic, modern, unique. A spin might land on a name you hadn't fully considered, sparking new naming directions.
If you and your partner are at a naming impasse, let the wheel be the neutral third party. Each spin can subtly guide your discussion or even reveal a name you both surprisingly like.
