Inkling

Inkling is a small product with a clean seam down the middle: the UX of choosing a name, and the engine that proposes them.

The interface is deliberately quick — swipe to keep or pass, build a shortlist without thinking too hard. Behind it, name suggestions come from interchangeable providers that all satisfy one interface, so a curated wordlist, a phonetic model, and a Claude LLM provider are swappable without touching the UI.

The detail I’m proud of is phonetic dedup: candidates are hashed by how they sound, not how they’re spelled, so you don’t get shown five names that are effectively the same name wearing different vowels.
