Hurricanes Need Southern Names

Cajun Justin Wilson

Greetings, world.

It has come to my attention, that Mr. Ed (aka Hurricane Edouard) had a French name. Though born and raised in Louisiana, I've never come across a single person of French descent (aka Cajun) named Edouard knocking around down in the bayous. Still, I'll accept that info-dump for the sake of argument.

How-some-ever, it occured to me that since those of us who dwell in the South have to deal with about 95-99% of the tropical storms that hit the US of A, instead of using a bunch of fureign names for hurricanes, the storm folks outta consider some fine monikers with a southern orientation.

IMHO, the top three names on any men's list would, of course, have to begin with:

HURRICANE BUBBA

followed closely by:
HURRICANE GOOBER (Gomer Pyles' beloved brother)
HURRICANE JOE BOB (famous Texas drive-in movie critic)


On the distaff side, what about leading off with:

HURRICANE SISSY

and then maybe:
HURRICANE JOLENE (title of a Dolly Parton song)
HURRICANE PITTY PAT (to honor GWTW)

Any suggestions for other names would be welcome.
