People Share The Best Ways To Find Out Someone’s Name After Forgetting It

by Damjan

We all forget the names of people we've just met, and it's completely normal. Most of the time, when introducing ourselves, we don't even hear the other person's name – our voice covers it.

Of course, there are some strange situations when we use the wrong name for quite some time, and no one thinks of correcting us because they think it's amusing.

Anyway, don't feel bad about forgetting names; we all do it. But do we all know a good way to get out of the tricky situation? A Twitter user going by the name @missmulrooney shared a story about her husband just saying, "I'm sorry, I forget your name?"

The post got people sharing their own ways to get out of this kind of situation. We've compiled a list of the best ones. Take a look – maybe you'll learn something.
