In Moonwalking with Einstein, American National Memory Champion Joshua Foer describes his trick for remembering names.  When you meet someone new, immediate conjure up an over-the-top mental image to go with it.  For instance, last week I met a gentlemen named “Kristian Matthews.” As quickly as I could I tried to match his face with the two following images:

Kristian

Matthews

A week later, I still remember it.  Give it a try.
