How to use Generate Random Cities
- 1. Set how many cities. Enter How many cities to decide how many city names the generator returns, drawn from a pool of real-world city names.
- 2. Choose a separator. Set Separator to a newline or comma so the city names are formatted the way you plan to paste them, one per line or as an inline list.
- 3. Copy the cities. Copy the generated city names into a spreadsheet, form, or sample dataset. Run the generator again for a different batch.
When to use Generate Random Cities
Generate Random Cities returns a batch of real-world city names, useful whenever you need geographic-sounding sample data without inventing place names yourself or picking favorites from memory.
- Seeding a sample address database. A developer testing a shipping or address form needs a column of plausible city names to populate test records alongside made-up street addresses.
- Building a travel app demo. Someone prototyping a trip-planning app wants a handful of city names to fill destination dropdowns and cards before real travel data is connected.
- Running a geography quiz game. A teacher building a quick geography quiz wants a fresh list of cities to ask students to locate on a map or identify by country.
- Filling placeholder text in a design mockup. A designer laying out a weather app screen wants realistic-looking city names in the location field to judge how the layout handles varying text lengths.

About the Generate Random Cities tool
Generate Random Cities runs as plain JavaScript in your browser tab, with no server behind it. Generate random city names. Whatever you put in stays on your device from start to finish.
The tool is part of EditSafely's Random Tools section, 120 single-purpose utilities built around the same idea: open the page, get the result, keep your data to yourself.
You can shape the output with 2 settings, including How many cities and Separator, and the result refreshes the moment you change one. A worked example further down the page shows exactly what the tool produces for a real input.
That local-first design has practical benefits beyond privacy. The tool keeps working on a flaky connection once the page has loaded, results are instant because nothing round-trips to a server, and it is safe to use with confidential material.
