After 1977, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) established a list of names for hurricanes, which are reused every six years with some exceptions for particularly deadly storms. The naming system alternates between male and female names and includes a set of names for each ocean basin. This systematic approach aims to simplify communication and reduce confusion during weather events. Additionally, names of storms that cause significant destruction can be retired from the list.
