Awesome work, David. To be honest, the idea of having a 'name vocabulary' never crossed my mind. The idea is brilliant as there are not that many names that are commonly used after all. And please <em>do publish your entire list</em>: I'm sure it's delightful and that it will be useful to many people. David, I absolutely love your list — it’s pure fun!

To be honest, the idea of having a ‘name vocabulary’ never crossed my mind. The idea is brilliant as there are not that many names that are commonly used after all.

And please do publish your entire list: I’m sure it’s delightful and that it will be useful to many people.

It is like using pegwords to have a place in your mind to "hang" information like in the major memory system. I use: ice cream cone for cohen Black smith hammer for smith Ant for ann black Supreme court robe for justin Toilet seat ring for John "kiss a fur" for christopher naked guy with the proverbial fig leaf over privates for adam math problem being worked by giant shoes (math shoes) for matthews (my name) Ray shining into shell for Rachel Mountain or ice berg for name ending in berg Chrisp tin for christina or christian V sign by fingers for victor or victoria hairy and old for harold, just hairy for harry you get the idea. Perhaps I will publish of my standards Does anyone have a list of name standards or know of one published anywhere? Dave Does anyone know of a list of “standards” that can speed up the process of remembering names, so that it can be done in real time. It is like using pegwords to have a place in your mind to “hang” information like in the major memory system.

I use:
ice cream cone for cohen
Black smith hammer for smith
Ant for ann
black Supreme court robe for justin
Toilet seat ring for John
“kiss a fur” for christopher
naked guy with the proverbial fig leaf over privates for adam
math problem being worked by giant shoes (math shoes) for matthews (my name)
Ray shining into shell for Rachel
Mountain or ice berg for name ending in berg
Chrisp tin for christina or christian
V sign by fingers for victor or victoria
hairy and old for harold, just hairy for harry

Does anyone have a list of name standards or know of one published anywhere?

Coincidentally I wrote about this subject too recently. This is really a skill that makes a big impression with people, and yet there are so few people that can do it. And for things to admit...I'm only checking out your blog AFTER submitting to the list group writing project. But you have another subscriber now. Great article, Luciano.

I make a point of writing the person's name down also. Writing in addition to saying it seems to help me. Thanks for all of these great tips for remembering names.

But since the remembering happens only in the privacy of your mind, I don't see it as a problem. Hi Kotsengkuba,
