Pick My Secret Santa

Pick My Secret Santa draws names in secret.

Gift exchange name draw

Say your family swaps gifts. Eight names go into the draw. The draw pairs each name once. You mark partners apart first. Each person gets one private link. Nobody sees the full list. Each link shows one match only.

How the draw keeps it fair

RuleHow the draw keeps it
No self drawsNobody ever draws their own name.
Pairs apartMarked pairs never draw each other.
One link eachEach link shows one match only.
No full listNo screen shows every match together.

Add at least three names. One draw holds up to 30. Pick a budget before you draw. Then send each link yourself. The draw runs in your browser.

The honest part. The organizer holds every link. The organizer could open one. Links are hidden, not locked. The seal is trust, not a lock. Send each link to its person only.

Is a name draw the same game?

Yes. A gift exchange is Secret Santa. One name drawn in secret. One gift bought for that person.

What if no fair draw exists?

The draw says so first. No links get made. Loosen one marked pair. Then draw again right away.
