I'm 32.
I don't remember names well, but I never have, so I don't feel like I've lost anything.
I do forget where I leave minor things like pens and utility knives (I must have 6 of them around the house), but I don't put a lot of effort into remembering where I put such minor things when finding another one is just as easy.
Funny story. From the time I was born until the time I moved out of my parents house, my mother would rearrange my room daily. I think it was a form of OCD, but she would take all of the stuff out of my top drawer in my night stand and put it in the bottom drawer, the stuff in the bottom drawer would go into my desk. The stuff in my desk would go into a box in my closet. The pattern was always random and the end result was that I never knew where anything was. I could spend hours looking for something that was in a drawer yesterday, but my mother had moved it while I was at school. I got very comfortable with not knowing where things were and knew it wasn't because I forgot. The problem now is that I worry if I start losing track of stuff, how will I know? I'm already comfortable with that feeling...
