• Your spouse's name
• Your parent's name
• Your child's name
• Your pet's name
• Names of close friends or coworkers
• Names of your favorite fantasy characters
• Your boss's name
• The name of the operating system you're using
• The hostname of your computer
• Your phone number
• Your license plate number
• Any part of your Social Security number
• Birth dates
• Other information that is easily obtained about you
• Any word that appears in an English or foreign language dictionary
• A place name
• Passwords of all the same letter
• Simple patterns on the keyboard, such as "qwerty"

To make remembering your password easier, why not choose something that's a big part of you or your memories? An avid Scrabble player, for example, might choose "wordz1." Or one could choose to remember a cherished pet from years ago with a password such as "4fido4."
