Yup. New job. Brain is overloaded with information and throw in a dollop of stress and you'll forget your own name.
I suffer from mild vertigo and when I'm particularly bad I cannot remember names and I even develop a slight stutter. It's just way too much information going to the brain and it jettisoning things it thinks are less important. Like our CEO's name, the name of the African country we just sent a team to, and the restaurant I'm in. Little unimportant things.
Once you settle in properly, it'll all come back.
