List of names with the pronunciations from 2023 thru 2028

[WalterWhite]

Question - since when does the name "Kyle" have more than one syllable? "Ky-ull"??? What about words like "pale" (pay-ull) or "trail" (tra-ull). Ridiculous. How about "Kile" for "Kyle"?

I have only ever heard "Kyle" pronounced with one syllable.

You know, sometimes I question some of these names

Like "Beryl?" They couldn't do "Brittany" or "Brianna?"

Or "Patty" (like a hamburger patty or Krabby Patty or, better yet, "Patricia" but shorter)? I mean, it's almost like they could have gone with "Paige" or "Phoebe"...

I mean, the names are the names and there's nothing we can do to change them unless they get retired as destructive, powerful storms. But I do occasionally wonder how some of these names exactly even found their way onto the Atlantic naming list.

Actually the oldest Boomers were born in 1946, so only would have been turning 33 in 1979. I bet most of the people on whatever committee came up with the original lists of names were older than 33.

Do you think we'd ever see an Atlantic hurricane with a non European name?

Well, of course. We will almost surely have Imani used in 2027 and Idris in 2028. And though Omar has been used as a given name in the USA for several generations, its origin is from the Arabic language, so if you count it we already had a rather powerful hurricane with a "non-European" name in 2008 as well as a tropical storm in 2020.

From what I know, the NHC has yet to use names like Irving, Imogen, Ivy, Indigo, and Ivar

Granted, these names are pretty rare and I personally have not met a single person in my life thus far with such name, but they are nevertheless European names.
