ways to use it

  • Word games: Scattergories-style rounds, “categories”, Stop! (Tutti Frutti) and alphabet challenges.
  • Classroom: phonics practice, letter recognition and quick-fire spelling.
  • Creative prompts: name a brand, a character or a playlist starting with the letter.
  • Fair picks: choose who goes first by the letter of their name.

letter frequency in English

This generator gives every letter equal odds, but English text doesn’t. E, T and A are the most common letters, while Q, Z and X are the rarest. That’s why game mode drops the hard letters. A round on “X” is usually over before it starts.

random letter questions

Is this random letter generator truly random?

It uses your browser’s cryptographically secure random number generator (crypto.getRandomValues) with rejection sampling, so every letter has exactly equal odds.

What letters are skipped in Scattergories?

The original Scattergories 20-sided die leaves out Q, U, V, X, Y and Z. Game mode here does the same.

Can I generate several letters without repeats?

Yes. Set how many letters you want and keep “no repeats” on. You can draw up to the full set of available letters.
