Find names and words before time runs out. Rare answers score more - solo or with friends.
How many names and words can you think of before time runs out?
We Know Names is a fast word-and-name game where quick thinking, memory, and rare answers decide the winner. Find first names by gender and initial letter, or pick a category, get a letter, and type as many valid answers as you can before the clock runs out.
Obvious answers are not always enough. In We Know Names, rare answers can score more, so every round becomes a mix of speed, vocabulary, memory, and strategy.
