Your name stays on this deviceMake your name tent
1 Type your name
Use the name you want people to say.
2 Find the name beats
Names and sounds can be spelled differently. First, spell what you hear. Then put the breaks between the beats.
The sound spelling can be different from the name. Tap a + to add a break. Drag a coral dash to move it, or tap it to take it away.
Breaks can also be moved with the left and right arrow keys and removed with Delete.
3 Show the strong beat
Tap the part you say a little stronger.
My name sounds like...
One clap for each name part. Say each part as you clap. The yellow part gets the strongest clap.
4 Pick a paper style
5 Make a class set from CSV
Import up to 40 name tents. A simple name list gets random designs, or add optional pronunciation and theme columns.
Private and local: NameFold reads the CSV only in this browser tab. It never uploads the file or saves its names, pronunciations, or design choices. The only file it creates is the PDF you choose to download. Use first names or classroom labels only - no surnames, student IDs, schools, emails, or other details. Clear the list or reload the page to remove the imported class set from NameFold; downloaded PDFs stay on your device until you delete them.
Headers must be name, or name,pronunciation, or name,pronunciation,theme. Example: Madison,mad-is-on,space. Leave a theme blank or use random; design names appear in each row after import.
