What you want to say to Mary Smith can be divided into three parts:

Mary Smith, I'd like you to meet someone. This is John Brown.
Mary Smith, I'd like you to meet a friend of mine. This is John Brown.
Mary Smith, I'd like to introduce a colleague of mine. This is John Brown.

Normally, you would never address Mary Smith with both of her names. You do so in this situation so that John Brown can hear them.
