Replacement name for Jeanne?
This storm name will almost certainly be retired, especially since it caused massive loss of life and made landfall as a major, suggestions for a replacement welcome.

It can't be Jeffrey unless they re-do the entire series (not a bad plan...Charley, Frances, Ivan, and Jeanne all need to go)
Since some people won't like Jezebel, which is what I think Jeanne should be named due to the darn thing coming back after we thought it was gunna go nicely along and be a fish last week, we could go with Jeanette or Jennifer

It won't be Jeanette... too close to original name...

Yes, it has to be a female name.
As has been noted here in the last few days, there have been times that the WMO (World Meteorological Organization) has chosen names similar names.
We will have Joyce in 2006 and Josephine in 2008.
In 2000, Joyce moved south of the Leeward and Windward islands and approached western Venezuela before dissipating. There were 28 advisories (six intermediate advisories). The storm peaked at 80 knots.
In 2002, Josephine remained out in the open Atlantic. There were only 8 advisories issued on this system. The storm peaked at 50 knots.

What I meant Tom was that if Jeanne was retired.. Jeanette cannot be a name because it is too close to Jeanne...
