How To Play FLAMES (The Original Rules)
FLAMES is the game everyone played in the back bench with a pen and a torn notebook page. Here's the exact method our calculator uses:
- Write both names and strike out the letters common to both (each match cancels once).
- Count the letters that remain across both names.
- Write F-L-A-M-E-S and count around the letters using that number, striking out the letter you land on.
- Keep counting from the next letter until only one survives — that's your relationship verdict.
Want a percentage instead of a verdict? Try the Love Calculator — or blend your names into one with the Ship Name Generator. And if the result gives you butterflies, here are 25 cute ways to actually ask them.
FLAMES Game FAQs
What does FLAMES stand for?
FLAMES stands for Friends, Lovers, Affectionate, Marriage, Enemies, and Siblings — the six possible relationship outcomes of the game.
How is the FLAMES game calculated?
Write both names, strike out the letters they have in common (once per matching pair), and count the letters left over. Then go around the word FLAMES, eliminating one letter at a time using that count, until a single letter remains. That letter is your result. Our calculator runs exactly this classic algorithm.
Is the FLAMES result always the same for the same names?
Yes. FLAMES is a fixed counting algorithm, not a random generator — the same two names always produce the same result, here and on paper.
Is the FLAMES game real or just for fun?
It's a classic school-days game meant purely for fun. It can't actually predict a relationship — but it's a great excuse to talk to your crush.
