Why do I forget the name Sarah if I am introduced to anyone named Sarah?

Question

:D

Answer 1

Clearly you didn't forget it if you can ask a question about it and say the name twice.

Answer 2

I used to be horrible at remembering names, so I emphatise with you.

I find the best way to remember anyone's name is when you first meet them to ask them how their name is spelt - this works well with Sarah or Sara. It gives you something tangible to remmber their names by and you get Brownie points for asking.

Answer 3

you probably hated someone named sarah in a past life, like when you were a praying mantis or something
