What Jaysen said.9 times out of 10, I’d say someone name drops and it’s just for the sake of thinking it ticks a box in an application. Having a conversation with someone tells me you have had a been inquisitive to find out more, but there are a multitude of ways someone could do this. They don’t have to have a conversation to prove this.Basically if it comes across more about who you met, rather than about you, it really isn’t worth it in my opinion
