Storm Names
This list was used in the 1955 seasons. The list was the same with the exceptions of Bethany, Cynthia, Hannah, Ilima, and Jasmine, which replaced Brenda, Connie, Hilda, Ione, and Janet. Bethany, Cynthia, Hannah, Ilima, and Jasmine were used for the first time this year. Names not retired will be used again in the 1967 season. Names not used are marked in italics.

Retirment
The SDTWFC retired the names Cynthia, Gladys, and Ilima due to the deaths and destruction they caused. They were replaced with Coryn, Garry, and Igor for the 1967 season.
