Storm Names
The following names were used for named storms that formed in the north Atlantic in 1980. The names not retired from this list were used again in the 1986 season. It was the first use for all of these names since the post-1978 naming change, except Frances which was used in 1961, 1968, and 1976. Names that were not assigned are marked in gray. The World Meteorological Organization retired one name in the spring of 1981: Allen. It was replaced by Andrew in 1986.

Famous quotes containing the words storm and/or names:
“Those who want to row on the ocean of human knowledge do not get far, and the storm drives those out of their course who set sail.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
“It is a sad truth, but we have lost the faculty of giving lovely names to things. Names are everything. I never quarrel with actions. My one quarrel is with words.... The man who could call a spade a spade should be compelled to use one. It is the only thing he is fit for.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
