¿Hurricane names?

I was wondering as to why there are three hurricanes in the pacific with names Hone, Gilma and Hector. Is Hone even a name?

Hone is both a surname and a given name or nickname. As a given name, it is common in New Zealand; "Hone" (also spelt "Hōne";) is the Māori transliteration of the name John.

I once knew a woman from New Zealand whose name was something like “Kayserah”.

She explained that she was an unplanned pregnancy and her parents thought, “Que sera” so they turned it into a name.
