They are not named after any specific person. There are also male names too. Ex. (Andrew) Names alternate in gender, of if the last storm in a the same year had a female name the next will have a male name and vice versa.

Additionally, they are named in alphabetical order, each year with the beginning letter starting at "A". For example: Andrew, Bonnie, Charley, Danielle, Earl and Frances were the storms of the 1992 season.
