I remember faces, but names take a long time to process.

Some people, I remember their names but not faces. Some, the other way. It gets so confusing.

ChalknCheese
This is a very Common Problem....Try to Repeat the name as you shake their hand..."Hi ChalknCheese nice to meet you" ...it helps sometimes.

I have started making an effort to try and remember names of people i meet now, and honestly it feels a little creepy.
luketreefreebean
I instantly forget name and face. I just say Hey you. The next time I see them.
manslut
I'm good with names. I can't remember faces for the life of me.

Evolution has determined that it is more important to remember the face of your enemies than their names. That's why we find names difficult
GiddyKipper
It is because when we first meet the we are partially distracted processing their face, and because we have no 'place' for them to store 2/
GiddyKipper
2/ their name. Within two minutes, you have them logged in your brain and a place to store info. Then confirm their name and it'll associate

Thank Australian Jesus for the word mate.

"Dude", "Love", "Mate", "Man", and if you're that way inclined, "giiiirl". You got it.
Boatsntoes
I do that every damn time. Brain cock blocks me all the time doing that crap.
ArcaneDryad
It's because you don't see a reason they're named like that. You see a logic behind naming an item, but why is someone called Katie, not An?
Omnimorph2112
I never forget a face, but in your case, I'll make an exception.
saiera
Just ask them what's there name again and when they tell you, say no not your 1st name your surname.

"intorduced" did any one else catch that

I just call them chumps and chumpettes.

Say there name back to them when first meeting them, try to say it out-loud at least three times. I have same issue, this helps.
ZeroContexzonne
I will try this. I actually saw the post then came to the comments to find a solution. There is always a solution in the comments

Nice to meet you JENNIFER JENNIFER JENNIFER

And if you can do a Jeff Goldblum impression, you don't even seem crazy in the process.

Came here to say this! Usually works, unless I'm drunk....

This is what I do! Works wonders. Also great in professional world when networking.

Thank you lastusernaneavaliable. That's so helpful lastusernaneavaliable. Nice 2 meet you lastusernaneavaliable.
KjTheLightning
for me it's the other way around, but i also have issues with names unless i can read them.
Linnywtf
Run a shop; even if someone comes in twice 30 seconds later I will still not recognize or remember them.

I almost always remember a face, but I'm the same as you with names I hear them and almost instantly forget
PapiJacko
So does everybody...
SerialKitten666
I try so hard to pay attention when they tell me their name but it's like they're not even speaking a language I understand when they say it
zenatsu
I suck at names, and openly admit it. I don't care If i haft to ask you multiple times. But I'll spot you in a crowded mall easily.
gitarrenkoala
Congrats, you're like every other person ever
lipusal
Yeah just like your mom whose name I forgot. Again. Dammit.
dangerousDoc
Same here I then ask about whatever story they were talking about the last time we met so they know I remember them
PapiJacko
That's standard. If you want to remember names you should associate an image to the face.
zenatsu
Tried that, never helped.

Call everyone Bruce, it works for me

Should we call the ladies "Caitlyn?"

"Chief" and "Skipper" are my go-to names.

Pretty sure people hate that

Aussie here, everyone is Mate
malachitekell
'Boss' or 'dude' depending
GenghisKhantDunk
There is a reason why 'mate' is such a large part of the Australian vocabulary
