If I see it written down. If someone just tells me their name, I'll forget it before the conversation is even over. I have to write it down on something.
I remeber being very close to the adults at the library when I was younger, I would always greet them (never by their name) and have converstaions with them and never know their name.
I remember in pre-school, I made my first, and, at the time, best friend. I thought her name was Nicole for a few months. Not even close. It was Mackenzie. I haven't improved with age.
