The official names for the 2025/26 storm season have been revealed. Is your name on there?

The UK Met Office, in partnership with Met Éireann and the Dutch National Weather Service (KNMI) have just revealed the names for the 2025/2026 Storm Season, which begins on September 1st.

This year, the first storm will be named Amy, while the second will be named Bram. Here is the full list below:

You may notice that the letters, Q, U, X, Y, and Z will not be used. This is due to the lack of variety in names with those letters, but also to maintain convention with the US hurricane warning system.

Storms are named when they could cause ‘medium’ or ‘high’ impacts in one of the three partner countries.

The naming of storms in the UK and Ireland came to fruition in 2015 by a “Name Our Storms” campaign run by the Met Office and Met Éireann following the St Jude’s Day storm in October 2013 that killed 17 people across Europe.

Other names?

Ex-hurricanes or ex-tropical systems that cross the Atlantic Ocean also retain the name they are given by the US National Hurricane Centre – as happened with Erin in August 2025.
