Due to the 1954 hurricane's severity, the U.S. Weather Bureau removed the name Edna from the tropical system naming lists for 10 years. The name Edna replaced the name Ethel following the 1964 season when the U.S. Weather Bureau dropped the name Ethel from the rotating tropical system naming lists. The name Edna was permanently retired following the 1968 season due to the 1954 hurricane being an active subject of research at the time.
