If you're *sure* you want memorable, there's always ...

        Legree
        Ratchett
        O'Brien

... or, if those are too obscure (I had to look up the last one, myself), an
obvious candidate is "Permanent Record" ... easy to remember, easier to
understand than, say, "Mentor".

Certainly memorable, though probably not the memories you want people to have.

Sorry ... it's been a long, tiring day of coding here ....
