Remembering names is a skill I have long respected but never had. If there was a single skill that I could magically obtain (like a brain dump out of The Matrix) it would be the ability to control people with my mind… but my second pick would be to a photographic memory with respect to people I have met and their names. Two articles I found provide some hints to those of us who lack this skill. The first article is specifically catered to name recollection. The second article is a more general memory “HOW-TO.”
