Hello,
The choice for "sample" should really considered. Others that I like:
Arbitrary -> give back any element at random. A parameter will tell how
many (default one).
Mix -> give the array back mixed (randomized). A parameter will tell
how many (default all).
The only possible thing that could be ambiguous about using "sample" is
that without a parameter, it is not easy to guess the "do the right" of
how many elements could be returned. Thank you. Good day.

What about:
array.random_choice
or array.random_element
