register
Formal greeting on first meeting. Often doubled — 幸会幸会 — and paired with 久仰 (jiǔyǎng, 'I have long admired you'). In casual settings 高兴认识 (hěn gāoxìng rènshi nǐ) is more typical.
memory
Read literally: (fortunate) + (to meet) — 'fortunate to meet'. The same appears in 幸运 (lucky) and 荣幸 (honored).
