2010 Storm Names

The following names will be used for named storms that form in the North Atlantic in 2010. Retired names, if any, will be announced by the World

Meteorological Organization in the spring of 2011. The names not retired from this list will be used again in the 2016 season.

This is the same list used in the 2004 season with the exception of Colin, Fiona, Igor, and Julia, which replaced the names of the four major hurricanes that made landfall in Florida in the U.S. in 2004: Charley, Frances, Ivan, and Jeanne, respectively.[4]
