Andy, Betty, Charles, Diana, Edward, Fay, George, Hope. In an average hurricane season meteorologists in the Atlantic expect to name nine tropical storms. The christening of storms began when weather forecasts were broadcast over shortwave radio and naming them helped mariners to keep track of the weather system. The tradition evolved so that each successive storm was given a name beginning with successive letters of the alphabet. Initially only girls names were used but later this was changed so that the names alternated from boy to girl names. If a named storm turns out to be particularly savage then the name may be dropped and not used in future years. The same system of naming storms is adopted in the north and south Pacific forecast regions.
