25 Online Tools to Generate Pronounceable / Random Passwords

From Facebook to ATMs, our passwords are digital locks to keep our confidential information secure from unwanted access. There are two types of passwords: pronounceable passwords which makes it easy to remember but no less effective, and random passwords, which are infinitely more difficult to crack.
If you’ve tested your password strength, but you don’t feel like installing desktop tools to generate passwords, then you’ve come to the right place.

In this post, you’ll find 25 online tools to help you generate pronounceable and random passwords quickly and easily. What’s awesome is that all the online password generators featured on this list are not only free; we don’t even need to sign up or subscribe to any of them.

Pronounceable Password Generators

Pronounceable passwords may not be as strong as random passwords, but sometimes it’s better to be able to remember than to risk forgetting your passwords and having to go through all the trouble of retrieving them, isn’t it?

Designeus Pronounceable Password Generator

This two-step generator lets you select the password template you want, then churns out passwords based on the pattern chosen. You can only choose to include uppercase, lowercase letters, numbers and/or symbols, but if it’s a pronounceable password you want, you will get a pretty decent one.

xkcd Password Generator

Xkcd’s idea of an excellent password is a phrase of four common words jumbled up. Careful though: It is also believed that even the most obscure words aren’t good choices as passwords consisting of "dictionary words" can be quickly hacked. That aside, it’s actually fun to try what the generator can come up with; they actually gave me the phrase, "little old bean history". There’s even a comic strip explaining their unusual take on passwords:

Phonetic Password Generator

OK, this one seems like a straightforward one. Consonants will remain, but the vowels might be replaced by numbers and symbols.

DinoPass

Get a simple, catchy password with only lowercase letters and numbers (not so recommended) or a stronger and yet pronounceable password, like ‘sc@ryLeaf92′.

Random Password Generators

Unlike pronounceable passwords that may be based on your personal information or common dictionary words, random passwords are simply a bunch of meaningless characters that hackers would not be able to guess, and could only resort to "brute force". Some of these generators also allows the option to exclude ambiguous characters, which are characters that look confusingly similar, such as ‘i’, ‘I’, ’1′ or ’0′, ‘O’ and ‘o’.

LittleLite Password Generator

LittleLite Password Generator is direct and quick. Just tick any of the character sets you want in your password, specify the password length, and generate.

Hugh’s Secure Password Generator

Hugh’s tip to an easy-to-remember random password was to come up with a memorable phrase, or better, a song’s name; snag off the first letter of every word, spice it up with some punctuations and replace letters with look-alike numbers. Generator or no, it would be fun to come up with this kind of passwords manually, aye?

Random Password Generator

Allowing you to limit ambiguous characters, this makes the generator a nice, quick choice if you’re tired of having your Wi-Fi being hacked, and your friends complaining that they kept mistyping your passwords because it’s hard to tell between ’0′ and ‘O’. Even better, the generator offers to display output phonetics, helping you to memorise your passwords.

New Password Generator

If you’re opting for something you can memorise easily, all you need to do is decide how many letters and numbers you want in the password, and if you want the digits before the letters. Otherwise, customize your password further with upper-case letters and symbols.

The Password Chart is a witty way to generate secret codes like how we did it back in high school. Firstly, generate the password chart by typing in a phrase (preferably a funny one you’ll remember). Then, you can either print out the chart and do it the (fun) manual way, or save time and convert it again using the generator; see your password convert to utter gibberish, which only you’ll remember.
