To effectively remember someone's name, it is important to practice the technique of repeating the name multiple times. This involves saying the person's name during the initial introduction, incorporating it into the conversation, and using it when saying goodbye. Engaging both verbally and mentally with their name helps reinforce it in your memory.

Additionally, it's best to refrain from using nicknames unless the person has specifically asked you to do so. This approach emphasizes respect and helps maintain clarity in communication, as highlighted in Susan C. Young's book, "The Art of Communication." By following these principles, you can enhance your interactions and leave a positive impression on others.
