NIO naming list just 9 names away from starting over

Naming in the North Indian Ocean began in 2004. The 8 lists are rotated, with significant names retired. That means sometime in the next few years, the NIO naming list will restart, and presumably the retired names will be announced.

What names would you retire from the NIO naming list? Some obvious choices for me are Sidr and Nargis.
