Modified for unleash to get rid of impolite adjectives. Format of color-noun-# E.g. use: blue-goose-37 instead of silly-goose-37

There are 162 colors in dictionary which should give 1,620,000 combinations.

Use JavaScript to generate human-readable ids from a lists of nouns and adjectives.

Generate ids in the format of adjective-noun-# such as

• silly-goose-37
• quick-cobra-15
• tricky-chicken-23
• brave-ladybug-90

My problem is that I often want ids that I can type without having to look at twice (nor telling someone else twice).

I should be able to shout one of these ids across the room to a co-worker or spouse and have them be able to enter it without any confusion.

Currently the id space is about 1,000,000 ids (100 * 100 * 100).

The goal is to have several billion possible combinations by adding more words as well as expanding the ids to have verbs and adverbs.

For a larger address space now, consider:

• Human Readable IDs for Node.js and Browser: https://github.com/linus/greg/
• Human Readable IDs for Java: https://github.com/PerWiklander/IdentifierSentence
• Human Readable IDs for Python: https://gist.github.com/4447660

All of these also have the benefit of bi-directional conversion, but not all of them have words which are easy to pronounce and spell.

Please add more words that fit these criteria

• Easy-to-spell - such that even my redneck dad can manage
• Phonetically distinct - no words like bore/boar
• Few syllables
• Well-known

All of the words are sorted alphabetically (sort -u) and stored in the *.txt files. The pre-publish script outputs the formatted javascript.

• wednesday, hamster, ostrich (difficult to spell)
• grey, gray, bore, boar (two ways of spelling the same word or sound)
• prawn (not well-known)
