I tend to forget names. :/

I try not to. I really do.

People who I interact with on a regular basis in person or I have known for a very long time are safe from my forgetfulness.

The people who I struggle with the most are those I meet online or those I meet in passing. I truly should remember names. I try my hardest. I practice the name in my head. I quiz myself later. But, it never fails... the name falls out somewhere along the line.

I even chat with people here who I have no idea what there name is anymore. 🤦‍♀️ I'll just apologize now. I tried my best...

Omg, I'm the same 😂

But yeah, now I just tend to be jovial about it and explain to others that I got a memory like a sieve and then we both laugh it off

it works like 95% of the time

@Fishy I do have some memory issues, so I try. But, dang it never fails! lol. I use my "cuteness" to get excused from it... that works like 50% of the time.

I always try to associate the name with the place or thing relative to the person - like Jim from the deli...or whatever...seems to help
Hey don't worry, I forget my own name sometimes! 🤦‍♂️😁
@Dewkissedrose it really isn't! 🤦‍♂️🤣🤣

My name literally means 'names' so nobody should forget it 😇

Same but I remember faces, places where we met and conversations we had.
