There is a trick I learned when I worked in the States. You may have noticed that Americans are very good with remembering names even when told once in a party.
Apparently the way to go is when someone is introduced you repeat the name ten or so times ( silently of course Laughing out loud ) and then associate that name and the person with something that rhymes .

Confused? I was at first then I became good at it. This is especially useful when the person that is introduced doesn't make an impression but will be useful to remember later Laughing out loud

I just blag it or try not to use their name. I forget people's names in meetings just after they have been introduced. Used to have a really good memory but it has gone to shit over the last year.

im talking about people you have been close to for ages on nights out etc, and then lose touch and see them again and forget completley who they are. even name would be good for someone to feel me, but i do the whole shabang.

Done that. Knew a guy from uni for years and bumped into him at the stone roses. Called him Steve the entire night. He eventually admitted to me later on that it was Chris. Felt like a right dickhead.
