Agree, how to create a memorable password is upto your imagination, like the first letter of every word of a song or a sentence for example. It is also important to use an api like I mentioned above to check if the user created is in the list of breached data or a commonly used one.

Yeah, I use the old horse-battery-staple technique for my passwords. It does mean they're very long, but much harder to crack than a "Pa$$w0rd" which is what a lot of APIs determine is a "strong" password.
