Why swipe-style baby name apps get deleted
"No search function, keeps on suggesting the same 50 names"
"I'd add how to pronounce the names"
"should be able to edit your list later"
"a way to swipe up if it's a maybe name"
Filters and undo locked behind a paywall
No way to hear it with your last name
Nameloom gives you search, free filters, pronunciation, Love/Maybe lists and a last-name test

FAQ
Can I search for a name? I'm tired of apps that keep suggesting the same 50 names.
Yes. Nameloom searches about 4,800 names by spelling, so you can go straight to a name. There is no swiping; filters help you discover names you have not seen yet.
Does it tell me how to pronounce the names?
Yes. Tap the speaker to hear any name in your phone's text-to-speech voice, and hear the full name with your middle and last name. The voice depends on the text-to-speech engine installed on your phone.
Are the filters or undo behind a paywall?
No. Girls, boys, unisex, origin, first letter, length, popularity, rising names, hide Top 100 and undo are all free. Nameloom is supported by ads.
Can I edit my list later? What about maybe names?
Yes. Tap ♡ to save a name and long-press for Maybe. You can move names between Love and Maybe, add notes, remove names and undo a removal, and add your own names that are not in the list.
How do I check if a name goes with our last name?
Enter your last name in the Full name lab. Every shortlisted name appears as a full name with initials and syllable rhythm, and you get a warning when sounds run together, the name rhymes with your last name, or the initials spell a word.
Where does the popularity data come from?
From US Social Security (SSA) baby name data, shown as a rank history from 1950 to 2025. Ranks are for the United States.
Do I need an account? Where is my list stored?
No account or sign-up. Your shortlist, notes and scores stay on your phone.
Does every name have a meaning?
1,600 popular names have a short meaning and origin note. Every name can still be searched, filtered, heard and shortlisted.
