The thing that worked best for me remembering names is having to memorize my students names when I was teaching. It turns out that after practicing on 250 or so names a year for 3 years, further names became much easier, even without any specific method (although I do try to use repetition in conversation more than I used to).

I suspect any technique will work for remembering names, because it is the practice at remembering names that matters most.
