Thankfully, we have DNS. A lot of ISP issued consumer CPEs now automatically create lan-local DNS entries for clients based on hostname provided by the client at dhcp time, a lot of clients also natively support mDNS, and there are plentiful free DNS providers if none of the above applies to you, and you can't host your own.
Remembering IPs isn't something that people should need to do at this point in our networks maturity.
