Now think of a giant bird perched on the head of this person whose name is “Robin.” Whatever this person sees, they will think of the bird. Like magic, you have locked in his name. Let’s learn another name.

A common name is “John”. This is also the word used for the men’s room. Imagine a giant urinal on your friend’s head.

How can you do this with a more complicated name like mine: Howard?

With more complicated names, you can break it down into syllables that have different images. The first syllable is “How” and that’s a question. Then I imagine a giant question mark. The second syllable sounds like the word “wood”. To remember Howard’s name, I imagine a giant question mark on a piece of wood. Instantly, I learned a new name.

Try breaking down people’s names into pictures. The more exaggerated the image, the better it will work. You will soon be an expert at learning new names.
