Yeah, it almost feels hard-wired. Sometimes my spouse will remind me of the names of people we are about to see at an event, and that even only helps a little. It doesn't apply to other memory things, either; I can remember names of other things, short-term and long-term... it's just something weird about people.

The fact that I'm borderline social phobic doesn't help, or may be related to the problem, I dunno.
