How do you remember people’s names? (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

I have an unusual name so when I meet new people my brain focuses on their reaction to my name and how they pronounce it, so I completely zone out when they tell me their name. I might remember it for a short time but almost always I forgot their name if I don’t interact with them frequently.

I can’t remember names. The struggle is real.
