I tried similar apps before. At least this one has a decent list of names to choose from. But so many bizarre spellings, sometimes they're merged, sometimes not. I'm not sure what the AI does, it sounds more like marketing. Relevant names were scattered until the end of the list, clearly the AI didn't learn to prioritize anythingv effectively. At the end I was mostly pressing 👎 though garbage names that the AI didn't figure out, and though the constant requests for money.

Thank you for your feedback. You are free to stop the search if there are no relevant names for you. Then it's likely that nothing better will come for you. This should give you a good feeling of having seen many names. Charlie will then not be able to suggest any more names. We will not create any new ones either. Thank you.

Instead of the constant begging for money, just make the app cost something. Honestly this pseudo free thing is annoying. Also I don't get how the comparison works. I'd want my partner to be able to see all the names I liked, but instead he only sees very few, most of them he hasn't evaluated yet. He should be able to scroll through my list. It's a big selection of names though, often including pronounciation, so the app absolutely does what it should, just not very user friendly imo.

We want the app to be free for everybody, but if someone wants to support us, we do not ask again for a donation. So, just pay a little price and we won't beg for money. That's a simple solution ;) Of course you can see all names your partner likes. Just change the filter to "thumbs up". See more here: https://charlies-names.com/en/faq/

It's an interesting app that needs development. The concept is really good and I like how easy it is to filter and swipe the names that I like or not. However I wish there would be the option to filter the names by origin (Greek, Italian, Roman, Irish etc) instead of country. Also, many names lack information and I feel that there are still many names missing. Another thing that could be better is to be able to filter the names I have disliked and maybe an option to add a second or third name.
