Passwords need to be as 'strong' as the information or service they are protecting.

If you are using passwords to protect critical data or online services then theyu need to be unguessable by machines that can try hundreds of thousands passwords over a relatively short period of time.

Using passwords that anyone can guess because they are easy to remember should not be done for any type of protection to services or data you are actually worried or care about.
