Name Swiper
Swipe-style verdicts: must-have, like, or veto.
What it does
The Name Swiper serves catalog name cards one at a time for fast verdicts: ✕ Skip, ❤️ Like, or 💚 Must-Have — by button, drag, or keyboard (← skip, ↑ must-have, → like). Filter the deck (All, Girls, Boys, Unisex) and watch three shortlists build themselves: Must-Have Priority, Liked Candidates, and Skipped/Vetoes. It is a studio, not just a game: sync your account, share a live sync link or QR code so a partner swipes the same deck, explore liked names across the other tools (surname flow included), and print a summary. Likes stay in this browser unless you sync.
Who it’s for
Couples who need volume verdicts fast — and anyone for whom a giant list is paralyzing but one card at a time is easy.
How to use it, step by step
- Pick a deck filter: All, Girls, Boys, or Unisex.
- Swipe each card: Skip, Like, or Must-Have (keyboard works too).
- Invite your partner with the sync link or QR code so verdicts combine.
- Review the three shortlists; send liked names into surname flow and the other tools.
- Print the summary for the fridge-door stage of the process.
What you get
Three live shortlists (Must-Have, Liked, Vetoed) built from one-at-a-time swipes, printable and syncable.
✦ A worked example
You give itForty cards in the Girls deck over morning coffee.
You get3 must-haves, 11 likes, 26 vetoes — the first honest shape of your taste, gathered without a single argument.
💡 Tips & tricks
- Must-Have should stay rare — if everything is a must-have, the tier stops meaning anything by card twelve.
- Compare veto lists with your partner before likes: shared vetoes are the fastest way to shrink the universe.
Enough reading — the tool itself is one tap away, and it is free.
