codename
Generate random, pronounceable, sometimes even memorable, "superhero like" codenames - just like Docker does with container names. (by lucasepe)
rand
Fast, high quality alternative to math/rand and golang.org/x/exp/rand (by flyingmutant)

We have getrandom at home
This may very well be a bit offtopic in the rust subreddit, but in case you need fast high quality non-crypto PRNG in Go, I've made one that I believe to be decent. It is unfortunate that math/rand is unlikely to significantly improve due to the backward compatibity and can't be recommended for anything non-trivial.

Alternative to math/rand and golang.org/x/exp/rand
I got a bit stuck trying to find a set of good permutation functions for all required bit widths; I've created an issue to collect information in one place.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing codename and rand you can also consider the following projects:
stuff - Unsorted, raw, ugly & probably poorly usable tools for reversing, exploit and pentest
youtube-stalker-bot - A telegram bot that sends you a random video
terraform-provider-codename - The Terraform Codename provider is used to generate random _"superhero like"_ codenames.
