The 2020 Pacific hurricane season was the fourth-busiest season on record. The season officially started on May 15 in the east Pacific Ocean and on June 1 in the central Pacific; they both ended on November 30. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the Northeast Pacific basin. However, the formation of tropical cyclones is possible at any time of the year.
The following names were used to name storms that formed in the northeastern Pacific Ocean during 2020. Retired names, were announced by the World Meteorological Organization in the spring of 2021. The names not retired from this list will be used again in the 2026 season. This is the same list used in the 2014 season with the exception of Odalys, which replaced Odile; the name Odalys was used for the first time this year.
