Random Name Picker

This tool provides a controlled, reproducible method to select names from a user list. It accepts candidate tokens as comma or newline separated values and returns a single winner or multiple winners, with optional weights. It is useful for branding exercises, contests, and classroom activities.
Conceptual operation: parse inputs, build a probability distribution, sample with or without replacement, optionally using a seed for deterministic results, and produce outputs including winner names and their positions. It supports per-item weights that influence draw probabilities, and can repeat draws if allowed.
Unique value: supports seed-based reproducibility, weight-based sampling, and batch runs for scenario planning; outputs are machine-friendly arrays and can be exported.
