When I'm not being able to remember someone's name, can I say in this situation: "I'm forgetting his name." Can I use the "forget" verb in continuous tense though it is stative verb.

You can say I’m forgetting his name but a more common way to say this would be “I forgot his name”

Hello Tanumoy! 😊👋🏻 This deoesn’t sound like correct really. Are you able to gradually ‘forgetting’ someone’s name or are you putting effort for that? It’s gramatically incorrect.
