Well Frisky is still pissed that hurricane Melissa (her name) was a bust,
and Andrew (my name) is still one of the worst ever.

How about a hurricane Micky or Minnie?

And why do they have to have Anglo names?  Maybe a hurricane Chung or Hue (Viet Namese), or hurricane Mao or Chang (Chinese), or...dare I say it...how about mid-Eastern names?  Hurricane Osama or hurricane Sadam? (said tongue-in-cheek)

Camille isn't a scary name either. I went to Mississippi a couple of years after and the ruin it caused was still visible.

I think the names are derived from those commonly found in the nations around the areas where the storms occur. Thus, the romanesque/anglo names in the Atlantic and the more Asian names for the western Pacific and Indian oceans. If these storms ever become commonplace in the Mediterranean, I bet you'd more of a Middle-Eastern influence in the names.

But don't quote me on that. I'm probably talking out my non-vocal orifice.
