Embed Nameryn on Your Site
One of Nameryn's generators is also available as a compact, browser-based widget you can
drop into your own site with a single <iframe> — no account, no API
key, no build step. Good for community sites, wikis, forums, and blogs that want a working
name generator without building one.
🎸 Band Name Generator widget
Same word bank as the full Band Name Generator, minus the in-page availability check, so generating names never contacts a third-party service.
What's inside the widget
Each widget keeps its generator engine and word data in its HTML and loads one shared,
same-origin safety script from Nameryn. Once those static files load, generating names
makes no further network requests. The widget sends no analytics, sets no cookies, and
never reads or writes localStorage, so it behaves correctly even
under a strict iframe sandbox. There's no "favorite" button and no in-page
availability check inside the widget (both would need either storage or an outbound
network call); for those, send visitors to the full generator page the widget links to.
The sandbox and allow="clipboard-write" attributes in the
snippets above are optional but recommended: they let the widget's own "Copy" button work
reliably while keeping it isolated from the rest of your page.
Embed FAQ
Is embedding Nameryn actually free?
Yes. No account, no API key, no usage limit, and no fee. The only condition is keeping the "powered by Nameryn" link in the widget visible and pointing back to nameryn.com.
Does the embed track my visitors or store their data?
No. The embed loads its page and one shared safety script from Nameryn, then generates names entirely in the visitor's browser. It sends no analytics events, sets no cookies, and doesn't read or write localStorage.
Can I change how the widget looks?
Not from the outside — the widget's interface and generator run inside the iframe, so a parent page can't restyle its internals. You can resize the iframe itself and control the space around it with your own page's CSS.
What is the second line in the snippet, and do I have to keep it?
It's a plain credit line that sits on your own page, just under the iframe: a normal <a> to the full Band Name Generator, with no script and no tracking parameter. You don't have to keep it. Nothing about the widget depends on it and the license doesn't ask for it — delete it, restyle it, or move it wherever suits your layout.
Why offer it at all: the "⚡ powered by Nameryn" link inside the widget belongs to the iframed document, which is a page on nameryn.com — so it credits our page, not yours, and search engines treat it that way. A line on your page is the only kind of credit that is actually part of your page. It's an ordinary link, and how your site handles outbound links is entirely your call.
My platform only accepts an iframe — what happens to the credit line?
Some embed platforms and page builders take an <iframe> tag and drop anything pasted around it, or sanitise the HTML down to the embed itself. If yours does, paste the iframe on its own and the widget works exactly the same — the credit line is optional and nothing depends on it. If you'd still like to credit the tool on a platform like that, a normal link anywhere in your own page text does the job just as well.
What happens if I remove the "powered by Nameryn" link inside the widget?
Nothing technical breaks, but it's outside the free license this widget is offered under. That in-widget link is the only thing Nameryn asks for in exchange for a free, unlimited, no-account widget — please keep it. (The credit line on your own page is a separate, optional thing.)
