Memorable password generator
Pronounceable random chunks you can say over the phone or type from memory, with the strength cost stated honestly.
Guide
How to use it
- Pick the number of chunks. Three is the sweet spot between strength and memorability.
- Keep the two digits on if the account requires numbers.
- Generate until one rolls off the tongue, strength is identical every time.
- Say it out loud twice, then click to copy.
- If nobody ever has to say or memorise it, use the full random generator instead.
Examples
Worked examples
Something like Stigou-Prenal-Kavue-73 reads aloud cleanly and types on a phone in seconds. Pair it with the WiFi QR code so most guests never type it at all.
Streaming boxes make symbols painful. Two chunks and digits, about 40 bits, is a fair trade for a low-risk account you type with arrow keys.
Email, banking, anything with your card details: those deserve a manager-stored random password or a five word passphrase.
Method
How it works
Each chunk is built from randomly chosen consonant and vowel sounds (34 consonant options, 10 vowel options, twice each), giving about 16.9 bits per chunk. The optional digits add 6.5 bits. Every choice uses the browser's cryptographic random generator, and the meter reports entropy from the generation method itself, the honest measure, rather than pretending the letters are fully random.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What makes these memorable?
Each chunk alternates consonant and vowel sounds, so it reads like a made-up word: Bodune-Ravemi-42. Your brain holds pronounceable nonsense far better than random symbols.
How strong are they really?
Three chunks with digits give roughly 57 bits, decent but below a full random password of the same length. The meter shows the honest number, calculated from how the generator works, not from the letters you see.
When is a memorable password the right choice?
When a human has to carry it: WiFi keys read to guests, a device PIN pad, a password spoken over the phone or typed on a TV remote. For website logins, a manager with full random passwords is better.
Are these words in a dictionary?
No, the chunks are generated sound by sound and almost never form real words. That keeps them out of dictionary attack lists.
Why the digits on the end?
Two random digits add about 6.5 bits and satisfy sites that insist on numbers. Untick it if you do not need them.
Could someone else generate the same password?
Each one is drawn with the browser's cryptographic randomness on your device. The chance of a repeat is astronomically small, and nothing is stored or transmitted.
