Hurricane Names for the 2011 Season

A storm must start as a Tropical Depression and move on to become a Tropical Storm before it is given a name.  The National Hurricane Center has been naming storms since 1953.  There are six lists that rotate, however, as a name becomes a devastating hurricane, that name is retired and replaced by another name.  Hurricanes are named alphabetically from the list in chronological order.  The list for the 2011 Atlantic Season is a repeat of the 2005 season, with some names replaced.

Here is the list of the Atlantic Season hurricane names for 2011:
