the philippine atmospheric, geophysical and astronomical services administration uses its own naming scheme for tropical cyclones in their area of responsibility. pagasa assigns names to tropical depressions that form within their area of responsibility and any tropical cyclone that might move into their area of responsibility. should the list of names for a given year prove to be insufficient, names are taken from an auxiliary list, the first 6 of which are published each year before the season starts. names not retired from this list will be used again in the 1997 season. this is the same list used for the 1989 season. pagasa uses its own naming scheme that starts in the filipino alphabet, with names of filipino female names ending with "ng" (a, b, k, d, etc.). names that were not assigned/going to use are marked in .
