Kat Hurricane Center/Naming Lists

The KHC uses 4 rotating name lists for each basin. Each season, the names are randomized, allowing names that start with "v" and "w" to be used more often. If the names on a specific list run out, there is an auxiliary list of 10 names that is predetermined for each season. So far, no names have been retired for any of the basins. If a name is retired, the KHC will announce it the succeeding year.
