Frequently asked questions

How are the initials chosen?

The first letter of the first and last word are used (e.g. "Jane Doe" → "JD"). A single word uses its first two letters, and an empty name shows a "?".

SVG or PNG — which should I use?

Use SVG for web and design tools since it scales without losing quality and has a tiny file size. Use PNG when you need a raster image at a fixed pixel size.

Can I generate avatars automatically?

Yes. The page accepts a ?name= query parameter — for example the Mock Data Generator's avatar field links straight here with a name pre-filled.

Is my data uploaded anywhere?

No. Avatars are generated entirely in your browser and never sent to a server. The tool works offline too.

Is it free to use?

Completely free — no sign-up, no watermarks, and no limits on how many avatars you create.
