Why Burma's recent cyclone is named "Nargas". a beautiful flower's name has been misfit on a horrible cycl

May be it looks like a Nargis Flower








The cyclone name "Nargis" (賳乇诏爻, IPA: n忙傻r-伞傻s), is an Urdu word meaning daffodil, which has its roots in the Persian Nargess (given name), which has the same meaning.[12] The first named storm of the 2008 North Indian Ocean cyclone season, Nargis developed on April 27 in the central area of Bay of Bengal. Initially it tracked slowly northwestward and, encountering favorable conditions, it quickly strengthened. Dry air weakened the cyclone on April 29, though after beginning a steady eastward motion Nargis rapidly intensified to attain peak winds of at least 165 km/h (105 mph) on May 2 according to IMD observations; the JTWC assessed peak winds of 215 km/h (135 mph), making it a weak category 4 cyclone on the SSHS. The cyclone moved ashore in the Ayeyarwady Division of Burma at peak intensity and, after passing near the major city of Yangon (Rangoon), the storm gradually weakened until dissipating near the border of Burma and Thailand.

They might be having another meaning for Nargis. and if they have literally named it after the flower then thats absurd... flowers cannot be damaged like that~!
