If there’s one thing I’m hopeless with, its remembering someones name. I have been known to avoid using a name at work for weeks because I’ve not remembered it. Very awkward when it comes to Christmas cards time! I was told recently that if you say a name out loud (or anything else for that matter) your brain is more likely to store it in your short term memory. So now, when I meet someone and they introduce themself, first I repeat their name back to them before introducing myself. I also try and drop it in again during conversation or at least when saying goodbye.
