No. Names are only given to to as many storms that reach tropical storm strength. On average about 10 of the 21 available names get used in a season. There is list of 21 names for these letters of the alphabet:
A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M,N,O,P,R,S,T,V,W. The names alternate between boy and girl names and are made up 6 years in advance by the committee of the World Meteorological Organization. This list is set barring any last minutes changes due to retired names because of infamous damage or lost of life. Once a tropical depression reaches 39 mph then it officially becomes a tropical storm and is assigned the next unused name on that year's list starting with the A name. So if there is not enough storms in that year reaching that level then the remaining names are just not used. However in the unlikely event that there are more than 21 storms then the Greek alphabet is used to finish the list and these can not be retired. In 2005 there was 27 named storms which included Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon and Zeta.
