2054 Atlantic hurricane season (Nekaro)

The 2054 Atlantic Hurricane Season was the first season in history to use a list of surnames instead of first names. The season was fairly active, with 19 named storms. The strongest storm of the season was Hurricane Martin which was a low-end Category 5 with 160 mph winds. The change was made due to a lack of first names available due to retirements. The 2054 season would use a list of common American and British last names, with names from different nationalities being used in future seasons before the controversial experiment would end in 2062.

Retirements
The names "Martin", "Jones" and "Smith" were all retired. They were replaced with "Miller", "Johnson", and "Scott" for the 2060 season. However, none of these names were used, due to the 2060 season being inactive and that the practice of naming hurricanes after surnames ended in 1962.
