Thanks @organiccacao. Keep theese steps in mind:

1. Realize you are about to meet a new person and activate your memory mindset. Usually we don't pay enough attention.
2. Listen carefully. Ask if you didn't hear the name clearly.
3. Use the name right away and several times in the next few minutes. Be careful to not overdue it as this might come along a bit strange.
4. Create a memory story. Translate the names into something more meaningful, like images. Connect these images with that person. Use unique features of that person and weave them into your story. Keep it short and simple. Visualize the story.
5. Repeat, repeat, repeat. Ask yourself several times in the next minutes what that persons name was. Remember your story.
