Opportunity to name storms affecting Ireland and Britain after favourite Escorts

[SteveB]

The public is to be given the opportunity to name storms affecting Ireland and Britain this autumn and winter.

Met Éireann is teaming up with the British Met Office to run the project over the coming months when storms are likely to be at their strongest.

A storm will be named when it is deemed to have the potential to cause "medium" or "high" wind impacts.

People will be able to send in their suggestions via Facebook, Twitter and email.

The names will be collated and will then be allocated in alphabetical order, alternating between male and female names.

I think we should name them after our favourite Escorts. (Though I doubt if any storms will be dangerous enough to be named Rachel)
What do you think, and what name would you give to a storm.
