Each year they come up with a list of names A-Z and just give off the names as new hurricanes come about (i don't know how they come up with the names or why they started naming them in the first place)

Why are hurricanes given names such as Leslie?
Hurricanes are given names to aid in communication and to differentiate them from one another. The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) maintains a list of names for tropical cyclones in different regions. The names on the list are chosen in alphabetical order, are gender-neutral, and alternate between masculine and feminine names. This helps to make identification and tracking of hurricanes easier and more efficient. Leslie is just one of the many names on the list.

They didn't. There is an alphabetical list of names and they go down the list of name for each storm. When they get to the end they start over and they alternate the genders of the names.
