Hurricane names are on a 6-year cycle. 2025’s were last used in 2019. Historic storms are retired, with new names added to the list as replacements. For instance, Dexter replaces 2019’s Dorian which struck the Bahamas as a Cat 5.

In the past, seasons that went through the whole list would go to the Greek alphabet. After a historic season in 2020, it was decided that an alternate list of names would be used instead.

There are also names for the Central Pacific Ocean.
