Public Votes for Storm Names Shaun or Timmy | Bristol News

The Met Office is letting the public vote on whether the next big storm will be named Shaun or Timmy — yes, the beloved sheep from Aardman’s hit show. It’s a quirky, social-media-driven campaign designed to make weather warnings more relatable by linking farm life with real-world storm impacts. With over 50,000 name suggestions already submitted for this season, and past names like Lilian (2024) showing how far down the alphabet they’ve come, Shaun or Timmy would be a major leap. The collaboration with Aardman aims to boost awareness and safety during severe weather — and if you’re watching, you might just be naming the storm of your lifetime.
