Because of the date it occurred, the meteorologists were up to the letter 'T', and Tracy was simply the name that was chosen.There is also some superstition attached to the selection of the name Tracy. Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury in the mid-1100s, was assassinated on 29 December 1170 by four knights who believed they were acting under the blessing of King Henry II. One of the knights bore the surname of Tracy, and following this act, all people whose surname was Tracy were said to be cursed by the church with the following verse:Wherever by sea or land they go,Forever the wind in their face shall blowPerhaps the meteorologists had this in mind when they named this cyclone Tracy, given its destructive force and high winds, and occurring in the middle of the two dates of Becket's birth and death (December 21 and December 29).
