How does the Secret Santa generator work?

Add everyone's names, hit "Generate Pairs," and the tool randomly assigns each person someone to buy a gift for. Nobody gets themselves, and you need at least 3 people.

Tips for a good Secret Santa

• Agree on a budget before drawing names.
• Share wishlists so people aren't guessing blindly.
• Set a deadline for when gifts need to be ready.

What is Secret Santa?

Secret Santa is a gift exchange where everyone draws a name and buys a gift for that person without revealing who they are. The big reveal happens at the exchange. It started in Scandinavia and is now common in offices, friend groups, and families pretty much everywhere.
