I probably raised a fair bit of suspicion last week when I told the Wells Fargo rep handling a declined CC transaction that I had to look up my mother’s maiden name in my password manager.

At this point anyone handling passwords must have encountered enough of us to know that some family names need to be looked up in a password manager, and it isn’t that suspicious. Isn’t that right, my cousin? I can never remember how to spell grandma 38!;&,90-@3!;8,’s name.

I don't remember where now, but I have run into sites that disallow numbers and non-alpha characters in the "secret" question answers. They were actively trying to thwart people from entering random gibberish there. Of course that's silly, but so is thinking that a person's maiden name is some kind of secret, or that people will be able to reliably remember things like "the title of their favorite book."
