Remembering someone by their name

What are the things that help me remember someone's name?
  • I try to associate them with common day objects.
    • ex. Aarzu - "Our zoo" (but with less emphasis on the "ou")
  • I also match the face with the name.
  • Nicknames are also helpful.

  • Asking for the spelling and correlating will help with pronounciation.

Even by the originial coder a few days later! Duplication of code, so wasting memory and running speed Very hard to develop by more than one person as there is only one file Very hard to debug - the file either works of it doesn't
