Re: Almost names
We had a Storm Eleanor recently (aka my wife’s name) and it was indeed briefly amusing 😁

It's highly unlikely there'll ever be a Hurricane Starla, though we do occasionally get that far or further down the alphabet. (In fact, in the same year as Katrina, we had a Hurricane WIlma and had to resort to the Greek alphabet. That was a bad year.)
Valerie shows up on the lists but again, we rarely get down that far letter-wise.
I believe there was a Hurricane or Tropical Storm Philippe once but can't remember.
