This is how its done in a Simplest way.import Gamplaykit to your VC and use the below code. Tested in Xcode 8.

 import GameplayKit

 let array: NSArray = ["Jock", "Ellie", "Sue Ellen", "Bobby", "JR", "Pamela"]

 override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    print(array.shuffled())  
}

If you want to get a shuffled String from an Array you can use below code..

func suffleString() {

    let ShuffleArray = array.shuffled()

    suffleString.text = ShuffleArray.first as? String

    print(suffleString.text!)

}
