A :artery(femoral)

V : Vein (femoral)

L : lacunar ligament

With the above pneumonic the orientation is from lateral to medial.
(femoral nerve is most lateral and lacunar ligament is most medial)
I should have said-the femoral nerve is medial to the Iliacus muscle at the level of the inguinal ligament

To remember what the cranial nerves are, remember this colorful mnem:

oh oh oh, to touch and feel a girl's vagina and hymen

(olfactory - CN 1; optic - CN 2; oculomotor - CN 3; trochlear - CN 4; trigeminal - CN 5; abducens - CN 6; facial - CN 7; acoustic/vestibulocochlear - CN 8; glossopharyngeal - CN 9; vagus - CN 10; accessory - CN 11; hypoglossal - CN 12)

--
and to remember if they're innervated by a sensory or a motor pathway, or both, remember this:

Some say marry money but my brother says big brains matter more

(CNs 1, 2, 8 - sensory
CNs 3, 4, 6, 11, 12 - motor
rest are via both pathways)
