About
Naming a comedic performer requires striking a precise balance between phonemic plosives (like P, B, K) and inherent absurdity. In professional circus arts, a nom de guerre serves as a persona anchor, dictating whether the character leans towards Harlequin sophistication, Auguste slapstick, or Grim horror tropes. This tool addresses the "Blank Page Problem" for writers, game masters, and performers by leveraging a combinatorial engine that produces over 2.5 million distinct semantic permutations.
We utilize a Mulberry32 pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) to ensure that if a specific seed is provided, the result is deterministically reproducible across different devices. This is critical for collaborative projects where a consistent generated entity is required without persistent storage.
Formulas
The name generation process is a stochastic walk through weighted linguistic arrays. To ensure reproducibility, we bypass the standard browser Math.random() in favor of a 32-bit state seed function.
Where the state evolution is defined by the hash mixing function:
The probability P of generating a specific structure relies on boolean flags derived from the seed:
P(Prefix) ≈ 0.35, P(Suffix) ≈ 0.60
Resulting in a combinatorial space size S:
S = × ×
