So I created an Array with loads of names. then used math.random to select a random name but it always gives me a number between 1 and however many there are. Here is the code.
local names={"Tom", "Jesse", "Olivia"}
local randName=math.random(1, #names)
script.Parent.BasePlate.Name=""..randName
try this:
local names={"Tom", "Jesse", "Olivia"}
local randName=math.random(1, #names)
local actualname = names[randName]
workspace.Baseplate.Name=""..actualname
you're trying to rename baseplate to randName which isnt a string value, but a number value. what you have to do is then use randName and actually choose that variable from your array
That string concatenation is completely useless...
what do you mean

because randName isn't an actual name it's just a number value.
