I'm on a local government board. At the beginning of the meeting we all have to state our names and positions for the transcription. It is, by far, the most stressful portion of every meeting.

I don't have the exact same situation, but in meetings where I have to introduce myself, I spend the first half of the meeting listening for my name (so I know when to introduce myself) and the second half of the meeting recovering. As a result, I never know who anyone else is.

This also applies to status reports at scrums.

I hate this. I sometimes try to repeat people’s name out loud immediately 5 times in a row to help burn it in my brain.
