The names are intended to reduce confusion in the event of concurrent storms in the same [[Tropical cyclone basins|basin]]. Once storms develop sustained wind speeds of more than {{convert|33|kn|km/h mph}}, names are generally assigned to them from predetermined lists, depending on the basin in which they originate. Some tropical depressions are named in the Western Pacific, while tropical cyclones must contain a significant amount of [[gale]]-force winds before they are named in the [[Southern Hemisphere]]. Before it became standard practice to give [[Given name|personal (first) names]] to tropical cyclones, they were named after places, objects, or the saints' feast days on which they occurred. Credit for the first usage of personal names for weather systems is generally given to [[Queensland Government]] meteorologist [[Clement Wragge]], who named systems between 1887 and 1907. When Wragge retired, the practice fell into disuse for several years until it was revived in the latter part of [[World War II]] for the Western Pacific. Formal naming schemes and lists have subsequently been used for major storms in the [[Pacific hurricane|Eastern, Central]], [[Typhoon|Western]] and [[South Pacific tropical cyclone|Southern Pacific]] basins, and the [[Australian region tropical cyclone|Australian region]], [[Atlantic Ocean]] and [[Indian Ocean]]. {{TOC limit|limit=2}} ==History== {{main|History of tropical cyclone naming|List of historic tropical cyclone names}} {| class="wikitable" style="margin: 1em auto;" |- ! colspan=4 style="background: #ccf;" | Tropical cyclone naming institutions |- !
