How it works
Three steps to a name you share
Picking a name doesn't have to be an evening of compromises. Just swipe.
2
Swipe on your own
Pair with your partner using an eight-character code. Then you each rate names your way — at home, on the train, on a break. Your votes stay just between the two of you — and you'll see how the other voted only when you match.
3
It's a match!
A name you both like lands in your shared match list and you get a notification. Favorites rise to the top — so you know where the real love is.

FAQ
Questions, answered
Is BabyName free?
Yes — the core app is free, including swiping, pairing with your partner and matches. Premium is a one-time purchase (no subscription) that unlocks the full name database, all countries, advanced filters, popularity charts and numerology. And it covers both of you: when one partner buys Premium, the other gets it automatically once you're paired.
How does choosing a name with my partner work?
One of you shares an eight-character code from the app. From then on you each swipe on your own — anywhere, anytime. As soon as you both like the same name, it lands in your shared match list and you get a notification.
Do I need to sign up?
No. No account, email or password. The app works anonymously and you can erase all your data anytime with one tap in Settings.
Which countries do you have name lists for?
Czechia, Slovakia, Poland, Germany and the USA — over 5,900 names in total. Spain, France, Norway, Austria and Italy are coming soon. The app interface speaks 10 languages.
What will I learn about each name?
Meaning and origin, name day, diminutives, international variants, a preview with your chosen surname, and for many names the popularity trend based on official statistics. Premium adds name numerology.
What about privacy?
BabyName shows no ads, doesn't track your behavior and requires no sign-up. Your ratings sync securely, only between you and your partner. Details are in the privacy policy.
