I solve this problem by bookmarking the website and putting some keywords, like "automated software install", in the description.

Which, of course, works better if the tool in question isn't usually used to install useful things on a new machine that doesn't yet have useful things on it -- browsers and bookmarks, for example. :-)
FWIW, I have also forgotten "Ninite" on more than one occasion, but I think it's the only tool I routinely use where I have repeatedly forgotten the name. Maybe there is something about that particular name that makes it hard to remember, rather than a general problem with any unusual name?
