Tornadoes do not have names. They may be referred to by where they occur (e.g. the Oklahoma City tornado) but these aren't official. Tornadoes are classified on the Enhanced Fujita scale based on the severity of the damage they cause.
To be classified as a tornado, a funnel cloud must reach the ground. Funnel clouds that do not reach the ground are typically referred to as non-tornadic funnel clouds.
The Natchez tornado of 1840 was a supercell tornado, as are nearly all killer tornadoes, and was probably an F5.
Tornadoes are not typically named like hurricanes. They are identified by the location and date they occur. If you heard about a tornado named Nakia, it was likely a fictional reference or a nickname given in a specific context.
The Joplin, Missouri tornado of 2011 had a damage path of 22 miles.
Tornadoes are classified based on the Enhanced Fujita (EF) scale, with ratings ranging from EF0 to EF5. The tornado of the elevens was likely classified based on the damage it caused, such as structural damage to buildings, uprooted trees, and the extent of the destruction it left behind.
An F4 or higher tornado (the only higher rating being F5) is classified as violent.
To be classified as a tornado, a funnel cloud must make contact with the ground. Once the funnel cloud touches the ground, it becomes a tornado and is classified based on its size, intensity, and associated damage.
