Lines in random order sorted into alphabetical order from A to Z

Alphabetizing a list

Put each item on its own line, then copy the sorted result. Sorting ignores capitalization by default, so “apple” and “Banana” fall in the natural order. Accented letters sort with their base letter according to your browser language.

Keep “Natural order” ticked so numbers inside text sort the way people expect (“item 2” before “item 10”). Need the reverse? Pick Z to A. To remove repeats at the same time, use the duplicate line remover.
