MILSOB
MILSOB is a program for generating random, military-style sobriquets.
For example, if someone creates an airplane they need to give it a name, which could be "F-16 Fighting Falcon". That's "code + adjective + singular noun." Or if they create a team they might call it the "Blue Angels". That's "adjective + plural noun." Those are MILSOBs.
You can generate names for things ("X-77 Hornbill"), teams ("Shadow Hogs"), or titles ("Adjunct Overlord"). Refresh for more names.
The ?format=
query parameter controls the words generated:
Format | Meaning | Example |
---|---|---|
a |
Adjective | fighting |
s |
Singular noun | falcon |
p |
Plural noun | leathernecks |
t |
Title | deputy |
l |
Prefix | assistant … |
r |
Suffix | … of the left |
Adding a ?count=<NUMBER>
parameter changes how many MILSOBs are generated. Adding a ?code=1
parameter adds a code
prefix (e.g. "F-16").
