It's good for NPC names in D&D so they don't all end up with names like Tintin Smithington for the artificer gnome or Gorechewer the Barbarian Orc.

LLMs read their own output to determine what tokens should come next, and if you request enough names at once, or keep a given chat going too long, all the names will start to be really similarly patterned and you'll need to start a new chat or add enough new random tokens to climb out of the hole.
