Name list of Tropical Storms and Hurricanes:

Eastern North Pacific Basin
(North Pacific east of 140°W)

National Hurricane Center, Miami, Florida

• In 1985, the names "Xina," "York," and "Zelda" were added when the normal list was exhausted. Since then, either those three or "Xavier," "Yolanda," and "Zeke" have been added to preserve the alternating gender. If more names are needed for any one year, letters of the Greek alphabet will be used (e.g. Zelda, Alpha, Beta, ...).
