Step 1 Tell the individual you remember their name
1.告诉对方你记得他的名字
Tell them you remember their name, but are stumped at the moment — just drawing a blank.
告诉对方你记得他的名字，但是暂时想不起——大脑一片空白。
Tip:You might also say something like, “I keep wanting to call you Tom, but that doesn’t seem right.”
小贴士:你也许可以这样说：”我总是想管你叫汤姆，但是似乎不对。“
Step 2 Exchange business cards
2.交换名片
Tell them you’d like to exchange business cards, and then get their name from the card.
告诉对方你想和他交换名片，这样能从名片上得知对方的名字。
Step 3 Praise the individual
3.赞扬对方
Praise them for being able to remember your name, while explaining that you lack such a gift.
赞扬对方能记住你的名字，同时解释你缺乏这方面的天赋。
Step 4 Ask for their last name
4.询问他们的姓氏
Ask for the person’s last name on the pretense that you forgot it. They will probably give you their first and last names.
问他们的姓氏来掩饰你不记得对方的名字。他们很可能会将姓和名字都告诉你。
Step 5 Introduce them to someone else
5.将对方介绍给别人认识
Introduce them to someone whose name you do remember. They will probably say their name as part of the introduction.
将对方介绍给你认识的人。他们很可能在你介绍时报出自己的名字。
Tip:If you’re with someone else, say, “This is my friend, Mary….” and then trail off. They will have no choice but to introduce themselves.
小贴士:如果你和别人在一起，可以这样说：“这是我的朋友玛丽……”，然后停顿下。这样对方只能介绍自己。
Step 6 Ask the person's name
6.直接问对方的名字
Ask the person their name if all else fails. Just be up front and say, “I’m sorry, I don’t recall your name.” Pay attention this time, so you don’t forget again!
如果这些都不管用，那就直接问对方的名字。要直截了当第说“很抱歉，我记不起你的名字了”。但这次一定要留心，千万别再忘记了。
The most common name in the world is Mohammed.
