    My grandmother had this quirk where she’d start reaching for names of people she knew because she just couldn’t remember your name right then. I like to think her brain was buffering.

    They’d usually be in the vicinity of each other, like my brother or father’s name, but sometimes she’d be way out there with a cousin or the neighbour.

    I tell you though, it didn’t feel great when she looked right at me and called me by the family dogs’ names before she got to mine lol

      My grandma did this too. She had eleven grandkids though, so she’d sometimes run through the whole list first
