I know that the verb changes from 忘れる(to forget) to 忘れないで (don´t forget) but I can´t understand the いて at the end.
At first, I thought it comes from the casual imperative form of いる as this post explained but it must have a verb in a て-form before to have this "keep...ing" meaning or to make the request.



This is from a song called "Name of Love", the lyrics are as follows:




未来で逢えるなら
忘れないでいて
僕のこと 本当のこと

          You have found the correct question; this いて is a subsidiary verb that means "to be ~ing" or "to keep ~ing". What you are missing is that 忘れないで is basically a (negative) te-form. ないで can be followed by many subsidiary verbs including いる, おく, やる and くださる. See: Is ないで a te-form? and ないで vs なくて: combining phrases with negative verbs



          So 忘れないでいて means "(Please) don't forget me (for some time)" or "Keep remembering me."
