I (work at it to) remember a handful of names of people who regularly to go the water fitness classes.
So the other day, one regular fellow's partner showed up and he introduced me.... "this is Bob", well "hi Bob" I said (as Bob was making his way to the deeper water) and then the fellow said "and this is Debbie" (and I'm not 100% sure if he was introducing me or someone next to me) and Bob said "oh that's going to be hard for me to remember" while looking right at me and I wanted to say "don't worry about it it's not my name so feel free to forget it!" but, I just smiled and waved it off as *that's ok* because, well it is. Even if my name was Debbie (which it's not, or even close to to be honest) I have no strong need for these folks to remember it.
I'm pretty decent with faces, less decent with names, but I do try! And that's what matters, right?
