∙ 6y agoThe answer to this question is constantly changing. Tropical storms are named in alphabetical order from a list of names that repeats every 6 years - with one caveat; when a particularly destructive hurricane hits, the name is retired and a new name is chosen to fill it's alphabetic spot in the 6-year lists.
