The Meaning and Origin of the Name 'Dana' in Cyclone Dana
Cyclone Dana is expected to make landfall near Puri, Odisha, by October 24. The storm's name, Dana, originates from the Arabic word for pearl, signifying its preciousness and beauty. The name is part of an international system for naming cyclones, designed to facilitate communication and public awareness. The process of naming cyclones involves selecting culturally neutral and easy-to-pronounce names, ensuring that they are suitable for public use. The primary reason for naming cyclones is to make them easier to track and remember, aiding in communication and reporting across various media platforms.
