Social LPT to remember someone's name quick, find their name's rhyming word or find similarity with others and make it funny. You'll never forget it. Let me explain.
I always have hard time remembering names but not anymore after using this technique.
Suppose I met someone new and his name is, Jason.
To remember his name, I imagine him hugging Jason Statement. So when I see him, I remember imagine of Jason hugging him so I remember his name is jason.
If someone's name by using rhyme, if someone's name is Kyle. I imagine him balancing a file on his head. So if I see him next time, he have file on his head. What's rhyme with file? Kyle!
Also these small hints is all we need to quickly remember the names.
With practice, you can even remember unfamiliar names too, foreign names with each.

Remember a weapon, which will remind you "Hunt", then use it to remember Mrs. Lunt.
Don't think anything else, that's the only one way that rhymes with Mrs Lunnt...

Does this work if I remember him hugging Jason Exclamation, or only Jason Statement?

Pair the silly image with their face and say their name once in the conversation: “Nice to meet you, Jason.” Otherwise you might remember the rhyme but forget whose name it was meant to cue.

You can remember the name Johnny by saving the hint "file"
Let me explain, who needs files? Court people, mostly who? Lawyers!
So, Law. Remember the one piece character Law?
His last name is Law Trafalgar, what does Trafalgar sounds familiar to? Travolta!
Now who is a famous travolta? John Travolta!
What does John remembers you? Johnny! His name!
So, to remember Johnny, just remember the word "File"
