Function name

Generates a random name-like string with realistic length variation.

Creates a name by generating a paragraph with 2-3 words (randomly chosen). The resulting string resembles typical human names in structure and length. Each word is between 3-7 characters by default, creating realistic-looking names.

Example

  RandomGenerator.name();    // "john doe"
  RandomGenerator.name(1);   // "alice"
  RandomGenerator.name(3);   // "jane mary smith"

  // Generate test user names
  const users = Array.from({ length: 10 }, () => ({
  id: RandomGenerator.alphaNumeric(8),
  name: RandomGenerator.name(),
  email: `${RandomGenerator.name(1)}@test.com`
  }));

  // Create random author names for blog posts
  const authorName = RandomGenerator.name();
