Fyi, if you’re bad with names, I would HIGHLY recommend adding photos to your contacts, as you add them.

It helps hugely with putting names to faces. It also helps differentiate between people. E.g. When you have 5 marks in your phone, but can’t remember the surname. Lastly, it helps when you are describing someone to someone else. Being able to easily pull up a photo of them simplifies things.

My girlfriend saved me as “DO NOT PICK UP [my name] [my birthday] [my field of study]” The DO NOT PICK UP part is from a time when I didn’t have a flatrate for calls and she had… but that was like 5 years ago.

I find it very useful to have my wife’s full name in my contacts.

We are involved in a lot of community organizations, and it makes it super easy to just share her contact card with people.
