A trick I use: Cop to having that weakness and use repetition to drill it into your skull.

Hi, Jen. Just to let you know, I'm one of those "can't remember names" people. I'm trying something to fix that: I'm going to use your name, Jen, a bunch in this conversation so I don't forget. Thanks Jen.

Then lean into how ridiculous this sounds after a while, like it's a game; you may get a laugh or two. It's silly, but people appreciate it when you take an interest in treating them right. You'll also find this is a very common "problem" and is very relatable to most people.
