Personal names are particularly susceptible to retrieval failures. In the present talk, a review of studies describing people’s spontaneous strategies for resolving failures in face naming, as well as laboratory studies of experimentally-induced resolution of name recall failures are presented. This review indicates that, on the one hand, people frequently use spontaneous strategies based on a mental search for additional structural (facial appearance), semantic (biographical details) and contextual information (e.g. the context of first encounter) about the target person. On the other hand, both cueing and priming experimental studies have shown that providing phonological information may help resolve a name recall failure, whereas providi...
