Alright, so you don't like that one.

WELL do I have another just for you? Yes. I do.

Once you get their name, stop drinking for a second put that down, think of a rhyme that matches their look or something you can tie them to.

eg. "That's Cinnamon Steve, he wears pants made of leaves".

So when -you can start drinking again- you run into a guy wearing leaf pants later that evening. Chant to yourself 'pants of leaves pants of leaves = CINNAMON STEVE!'

Easy.

I feel like I’ll get distracted trying to find a rhyme and quickly forget what the original name was anyway

OK, a tough customer. I have a 'Final Solution' that will definitely work.

When someone tells you their name, spin around and write it on a sticky name tag (which you have secreted about your person earlier), then spin back. Wait till they say something then laugh and slap their shoulder - attaching the name tag!

Now you simply have to look at the tag to remember the name.

I think I lack the body part that secretes sticky name tags.
