Hurricane Names
There is a six year rotation of Hurricane names. They proceed alphabetically excluding q, x, y & z. A particularly violent or destructive hurricane will often have it's name retired. (Much like a sports jersey.)
Here is a list of all the 6 year name rotation for Atlantic hurricanes.
(Names are both male and female as of 1979.)
So give that Katrina will likely be retired I'd like to nominate some new K-names for the list.
King - "King"
Kareem - "Very Generous"
Kayla - "pure and beloved"
Kermit - "free man"
I wanted Kirk ("owned by the church") but it is on the list already for 2007.
Ok gentle readers, the ball is in your court, what name should replace Katrina.

Wezie stole mine - maybe - Kwaneequa/Queen Latifa - with a nod to my African American friends. OK, - bring it.
If it was really cold it could be Krystal.
Ken, unless it is a really big one, then Kenneth or Kenny Ray would be good. Strikes fear in your heart, huh?
Ryan, if it was really cold it would be a blizzard and I don't think they name those.
