Paused when remembering interviewers’ names

Hi all, completed 7 rounds and just had a final round with an MD. Interview was good, but at the end he asked me who else I talked to. I paused for five to ten seconds on 1-2 names, but was able to give first and last for all six members I spoke to. How much of a ding is this? Sorry to be neurotic but I really want the offer
