While not a formal scientific term, “cousin face” describes the experience of thinking you recognize someone you’ve never met or being repeatedly mistaken for someone else. Researchers say this occurrence stems from the brain’s innate ability to detect and remember faces. “Our brains are tuned to pick up on familiar patterns, which helps us navigate social interactions more smoothly,” said Cheryl Groskopf, a licensed therapist
