About Name Match Calculator

Welcome to NameMatchCalculator.fun — a small, friendly project built to add a little joy and curiosity to your day. Our site offers a playful name compatibility meter that produces entertaining match scores for romance and friendship. While it is not based on astrology or scientific relationship metrics, it is intentionally designed to be deterministic (the same names give the same result) and highly shareable.

Why people love name-match tools

Name-based games have been popular in classrooms, parties, and social circles for generations. There’s something delightful about seeing two names together and imagining a story — a cultural shorthand that sparks conversation. The Name Match Calculator captures that playful spirit: it turns a simple idea into a fast, visual experience that people enjoy sharing with friends, partners, or online followers.

How our tool works (a simple, honest explanation)

The calculator uses a lightweight algorithm that combines deterministic hashing and a few human-friendly heuristics. It evaluates the letters in each name, checks shared characters, and factors a small “vowel harmony” adjustment so names with similar sounds tend to score slightly differently. The goal is consistency (the same input produces the same output) while still producing varied and entertaining results.

Design principles

We built this site with three main principles in mind:

  1. Fun-first: Results should feel playful and delightful.
  2. Privacy-friendly: The app runs in your browser and stores recent history locally; we don’t track or collect names on our servers.
  3. Mobile-first: Most users open the tool on phones, so the experience is optimized for touch, readability, and fast sharing.

What you can do with the results

Use the score as a friendly icebreaker: post a celebrity pair and challenge followers, test your friendship squad, or generate a quirky “compatibility certificate” to share on social platforms. Many users find the tool helpful for starting conversations rather than drawing conclusions about relationships.

Responsible use

Because the results are purely for entertainment, please avoid using them to make serious decisions about people’s feelings, jobs, or any situation where real consequences might occur. Always respect privacy and consent when sharing results about other people.

Our mission

We want to create small, joyful corners of the web that encourage connection without the noise. If you enjoy the site, please tell a friend — small word-of-mouth shares help the project grow. If you have feedback, feature ideas, or a bug report, contact us: hello@namematchcalculator.fun.
