Here's the Good Doctor's treatment of this one.

Thanks, Slava, I had used the Search box and was told there was no such entry. Connotations are interesting: typhoon sounds much more dangerous to me than hurricane. And if I remember correctly, the names used to be all female, perhaps because the male assumption that hurricanes and females were both unpredictable. However, males are likely to do more damage when they explode? Much better to alternate the names. Or we could simply letter or number them: A-M or 1-10.
