            | *Whenever
            a Hurricane has had a major impact, any Country affected by the
            storm can request that the name of the Hurricane be "Retired"
            by agreement of the World
 Meteorological Organization (WMO). Retiring a name actually
            means that it cannot be
 reused for at least 10 years, to facilitate historic references,
            legal actions, insurance claim
 activities, etc. and avoid public confusion with another storm
            of the same name. If that
 happens, a like gender name is selected in English, Spanish or
            French for Atlantic Storms.
 A great number of destructive storms are not included on this
            list because they
 occurred before the Hurricane naming convention was established
            in 1950.  Source
