Western North Pacific and the South China Sea Names

The Regional Specialized Meteorological Centre (RSMC) Tokyo - Typhoon Centre will assign a tropical cyclone a name from the list followed by a 4-digit identification number (in brackets). Names on the list will only be given to tropical cyclones of tropical storm strength or above. The names are adopted by ESCAP/WMO Typhoon Commitee and are used sequentially. That is, if the last storm of the year is Cimaron, the first storm of the next year is Jebi.

The names and their pronunciation are also available on the ESCAP/WMO Typhoon Committee website.
