Tips For Remembering Names

RE: Tips For Remembering Names By Julie UK (44) Profile Contact I make up poems about that person. They don't scan particularly well, but I don't plan to publish them! Things like: SUE SUE Shes so tall - she doesn't know what to do. See! I said they were bad!

Sounds weird, but it really works. You will at least have a start. I also have to make up litlle sayings. I have 3 friends named, Kristin, Kirsten and Keersten - all pronounced differntly. "here is Keersten", "her is Kirsten". And is simply OK to ask over and again. Some names are just hard to recall.

I'm sure they would be glad to tell you and it would be of little work on their part. Posted on 12/20/2004 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Tips For Remembering Names By ThriftyFun (3107) Profile Blog!

When you meet someone for the first time, say their name back to them and it will help you to remember it. "Hello, John Doe, pleased to meet you." By fletcher Posted on 12/12/2004 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Tips For Remembering Names By MrsKris007 (8) Contact To remember someone's name I break the name up into words and use it in a sentence. Michael might be 'He dropped a mike in his ale' or Hillary might be 'She climbed a hill to get some air(y)'. -Kristine Posted on 12/08/2004 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Tips For Remembering Names By ThriftyFun (3107) Profile Blog! Contact I am awful at remembering names. To help, I try to repeat the name as soon as I hear it, i.e. "Nice to meet you Karen" Then I try to form a link to another Karen I might have known and say it out loud "I once had a neighbor named Karen." Use the name again as you say goodbye. By Linda Posted on 12/07/2004 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Tips For Remembering Names By ThriftyFun (3107) Profile Blog! Contact Make a mental connection to someone's name as you meet. For example, Bill might remind you of your dentist who gives you a bill, or a Marilyn or a Norma might make you think of Marilyn Monroe because they are blonde. Just don't voice it unless it is flattering! By Linda Posted on 12/07/2004 | Report Spam or Abuse
