One of the clients I have worked with for many years, even when I worked at the previous company was a nice, and very sharp client. Then she got married and changed her last name. No big deal to edit the contact info. Then she got divorced, but kept that name until a couple of years later she got married again. This time her last name made a funny rhyme with her first name and she did not like the way it sounded. So she changed to using her middle name.
I only see her in person once every few years, and we do most business on the phone and with email. I was ready to send her an email about a project we are working on, and all I could think up was her original name and for whatever reason her all new name was hiding in the recesses of my brain.
It finally came to me and I added her old name to her contact info so I can search for either name now in case my memory goes and hides again. Once per year interactions just was not enough to keep her new name accessible.
