One of the toughest things to do when getting to know people professionally is remembering their names. And it's also an extremely useful skill to have when you're networking. Showing a stranger that you remembered her name can portray you as someone who pays attention and even someone who cares. Here are some tricks to remembering any name:
想要在結(jié)識(shí)他人方面表現(xiàn)出專業(yè)素養(yǎng)，一大難題就是如何記住別人的名字。又快又好地記住對(duì)方的名字，這在社交上可是一個(gè)很有用的技巧。記住別人的名字展示給對(duì)方的就是，你是個(gè)專注的人，而且你很在乎對(duì)方。下面介紹一些小技巧讓你從此不再“張冠李戴”：

1.Ask for their business card: When you meet someone in a networking situation, ask for their business card. Jot down a few notes about the person and his appearance so you can differentiate him from the other people you've met. You can always refer back to the card if you forget someone's name.
問(wèn)對(duì)方要名片：在社交場(chǎng)合，當(dāng)你和某人見(jiàn)面的時(shí)候，問(wèn)他們要一張名片。并在名片上略微記一些有關(guān)這個(gè)人的外貌或其他方面的特征，以便區(qū)別。如果你忘了對(duì)方的名字，那就看一眼名片。

2.Repeat it in your mind: After you've met someone, repeat her name in your mind a few times until you feel like you got a hang of the name.
在腦中復(fù)述對(duì)方的名字：在認(rèn)識(shí)了某人之后，把她的名字在腦中重復(fù)幾遍，直到你覺(jué)得記住了為止。

3.Write it down: Some people write down people's names in a private place like a bathroom on a scrap of paper or a notebook.
把對(duì)方的名字寫下來(lái)：有些人會(huì)去到一個(gè)隱蔽的地方，比如衛(wèi)生間，把新認(rèn)識(shí)的人的名字寫下來(lái)，寫在一張紙上或者筆記本里都可以。

4.Ask again: At the end of your conversation, ask the person you're speaking with to repeat his name just to make sure you have it right. Hearing it again will help you memorize it as well.
再問(wèn)一次：在談話的最后，再詢問(wèn)一遍對(duì)方的名字，以作確認(rèn)。而且，再聽(tīng)對(duì)方說(shuō)一次名字，也能讓你更好地記住。

5.Visualize an image: Attach an image to the name. For example, if you meet a Catherine, then try to connect the image of a cat with the woman. That way, when you meet the woman again, the image of a cat will pop up, and it will be easy to work out what her name is.
圖像法：把對(duì)方的名字和圖像聯(lián)系起來(lái)。比如，對(duì)方叫做Catherine，你就想象一個(gè)女人帶著一只貓的圖像。這樣的話，當(dāng)你下次再見(jiàn)到她時(shí)，馬上就會(huì)有一只貓的形象出現(xiàn)在腦海中，而她的名字也就呼之欲出了。

6.Identity associations: If you picked up an interesting or distinguishing fact about the person you're talking to, then repeat the associations in your head. For example, Matt resells rare shoes on eBay or Kelly participates in triathlons.
聯(lián)想法：把對(duì)方和某件有趣的或者突出的事聯(lián)系在一起，然后再在腦海中重復(fù)這個(gè)聯(lián)想。舉個(gè)例子，Matt在eBay上賣二手的稀有鞋品，或者Kelly參加過(guò)鐵人三項(xiàng)比賽。

7.Inject?it into conversation: Say the other person's name as often as you can during the conversation without it getting awkward. For example, inserting the name casually in sentences like "I really agree with you, John" or "John, how are you liking living in the city?" will do wonders for memorizing names.
把對(duì)方的名字加入到對(duì)話中去：盡可能多地在對(duì)話中提到對(duì)方的名字，但不要把場(chǎng)面弄得很尷尬。比如，你可以很隨意地說(shuō)，“我很同意你的觀點(diǎn)，John?！被蛘摺癑ohn，你覺(jué)得住在大城市里怎么樣？”這個(gè)方法會(huì)帶給你意想不到的好結(jié)果。
