How rap names are built
Prefix + your name
Lil, Young or Big in front of your name is short and instantly sounds like rap.
Danny becomes Young Danny
A title
MC and DJ go back to hip-hop's early days and tell people what you do.
Danny becomes MC Danny
Your name + a word
Pair your name with one strong word that sets the mood, funny or serious.
Danny becomes Danny Wizard
Two new words
Two words that sound good together give you a persona with no link to your real name.

How to pick a rap name that sticks
Say it out loud
If it's awkward to shout from a stage, it's awkward to rap. One to three syllables per word works well.
Make it easy to spell
People need to find you after hearing it once, so go easy on odd spellings.
Search it first
Look it up on Spotify, TikTok and Google to make sure another artist isn't already using it.
Test it in a bar
Hear it in a verse before you commit. A name can look great and still rap badly.
Hear your new name in a rap
Tap the video icon next to any name and a verse with that name lands here. Upload a photo and the AI raps it with your face.
1Upload a photo
A clear, front-facing photo works best. People, pets and characters all work.

Rap name questions
Start with your real name or a word that describes you, then try a prefix like Lil or Young, a title like MC, or a second word that sets the mood. Say it out loud and check that nobody else is using it.
Yes. It's free and unlimited, with no account. Names are made in your browser, so what you type isn't sent to our servers. Turning a name into a rap video uses credits, and new accounts get 3 free, enough for one 5-second video.
Yes. Type your first name and most of the 12 results will use it. Leave the box empty for names with no link to your real name.
You can use any name you like, but we don't check whether it's taken or trademarked. We skip some famous stage names, but not all of them, so search it before you release music under it.
Yes. Tap the video icon next to a name to add a four-line verse to the generator, then upload a photo. You get a 5 to 15 second lip-synced clip, not a full song.
