# random_name_picker

Create a list of 1 or 2 word random names.

* Names may have duplicates unless you use the `-u` command-line option to force the names to be unique.

* You must use the `-i INTEGER` command-line option to tell the script how many names to generate. Also,

the script doesn't check for how many unique names are possible, so if you use a number that is larger

than the max possible unique names, you will create an endless loop. If this does happen, you'll need

to break out the program using the Ctrl-C keyboard shortcut.
