My fathers mother couldn’t remember the name of the city she was in, just used the name of where she lived for years. Couldn’t remember most proper nouns, including the names of her kids, so would just recite the list until she got to the last one.
My fathers brothers and sisters had it bad too.
My and my sister have it just a bit, but have good/funny/memorable coping strategies such as holding words while we dig up mnemonics, as do some of our cousins from that side.
