Default Have we stopped naming storms again?

I noticed that we had a few days warning from UKMO, but this time around,there was no name attributed to the so called "Storm" of the past few days.

Have we seen sense and finally dumped that childish idea?

Clearly the forecast impacts were not enough to warrant a name.
Sadly, 3 young men lost their lives on the road near Plymouth in appalling wet and windy driving conditions.

However, it is highly unlikely the naming of the storm would have prevented these deaths. The yellow warning certainly did not.
