This function will take a pattern and generate a random string based on the pattern

Pattern Syntax:

c = consonant

v = vowel

© = letter "c"

(v) = letter "v"

(x,y) = x OR y

Sorry, but this function can NOT generate alphanumeric strings!

I tested with this pattern 

$TestPattern = "cvvcv"
and your function returned very funny name like Zuina,Xaaso,Yaili,Piequ. I like this script. Nice work.

very cool script :( and it could become the BEST if you could integrate something like regular expressions in it muttley(line in stringregexp) that way u could even have apha numerical strings :)

P.S: i got a Houdini with(cvvcvcv) :P

I'm trying to use this to come up with a cool username that isn't taken everywhere (like "Paulie" is)

Can't come up with a good pattern though... "cv(r,v)(en)vc" has some good results though...

I like it. It's more or less a word generator, than a name generator muttley

I realized you were right (Topic title changed)

You've given me something fun to mess with muttley

#Include <Array.au3>
Global $sPattern = "cv(r,v)(en)vc", $azArray[1] = ["Names"], $blah, $blah2
For $i = 1 to 1000
    $blah = GenerateName($sPattern)
    $blah2 = _ArraySearch($azArray, $blah)
    If @error Then
        _ArrayAdd($azArray, $blah)
    EndIf
Next

_ArrayDisplay($azArray)

Gives you (Almost) 1000 different names (Almost because it removes some duplicates).

EDIT: Do you mind if I convert this into a Web-Based Autoit script?

I have it successfully running as a web-based script, albeit it wasn't too difficult the way you wrote it. Just had to "Echo" The names on the page with a bit of formatting. My server is being slow and nit-picky at the moment, so I'll just post a cut-down version. It goes by the "cv(r,v)(en)vc" pattern, which I loved enough to print out a page with 400 words based on that pattern and highlighted the ones I liked.

##WebApp
<html>
<head>
<title>Web-Based Name Generator</title>
</head>
<body>
A few random names: 
<?au3
Global $sPattern = "cv(r,v)(en)vc", $azArray[1] = ["1000"], $blah
$sHtml = "<b>{NAME}</b> &nbsp; &nbsp;"
For $i = 1 to 5
    Echo(StringReplace($sHtml, "{NAME}", GenerateName($sPattern)))

    If StringInStr($Pattern, "(") Or StringInStr($Pattern, ")") Then

        If CharCount($Pattern, "(") <> CharCount($Pattern,")") Then SetError(3,"Parenthesis",-1)
        $Groups = StringRegExp($Pattern, "\("&".*?"&"\)",3)
        $PlaceHolder= $Pattern
        For $i = 0 to Ubound($Groups)-1
