Default Names

Good with them?

I learn people irl names' pretty quickly but when it comes to TV/film characters it takes me ages. Espicially film, I only really pick up the iconic character names or those in sequels.

Terrible with names.

Always recognise faces but no idea where from or who they are

I learnt the name of every Apprentice candidate last year in week 3 (the first week I saw of it) and same this year bar a few. And I learnt all the names of the Ender's characters in about a week of watching.

Real life I hear someone's name and it just sticks. Thanks to Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training which taught me to repeatedly say their name over and over in my head.

I'd say I'm good with names in general.

I'm good with names and faces actually, but in general my memory is appalling.

I'm like this too. I remember every little detail about people too so I have to pretend I don't when I see them next otherwise it's awkward and they make me feel like a stalker.

I'm good with names, rarely forget one once I've seen the person and been told their name, also pretty good with putting faces to names too.

I usually come up with nicknames for people right away so I don't have to remember their real name
