Generate random usernames in the form of AdverbAdjectiveNoun (=AvAdNo), or AdjectiveNounVerbNoun (=AdNoVeNo).

Files

Based on the files of adverbs.txt, adjectives.txt and nouns.txt (all in American English) the following linux command line generates unique looking usernames:

echo `shuf -n1 adverbs.txt | sed 's/./\u&/'`\
`shuf -n1 adjectives.txt   | sed 's/./\u&/'`\
`shuf -n1 nouns.txt        | sed 's/./\u&/'`


echo `shuf -n1 adjectives.txt   | sed 's/./\u&/'`
`shuf -n1 nouns.txt             | sed 's/./\u&/'`
`shuf -n1 verbs.txt             | sed 's/./\u&/'`
`shuf -n1 nouns.txt             | sed 's/./\u&/'

shuf gets a random element, sed upper-cases the first letter of each one, echo just concatenates the outputs.
