You can try this "what's the name of your math teacher in junior high school". I use this question in most of my online accounts.

Good choice, and very secure : I don't remember his name.

although a good choice, but suppose hacker is your school friend then he might easily know your math teacher's name.or your friend could even some how bring in the discussion topic into conversation and make you to answer your security question(some hackers are very good at social engineering). i was asking about such a question which, if brought into conversation, by someone close to you,should alert you that it can be a trap to reveal answer to your security question.

You can set a fake name as the answer. So only you know the exact answer.
