The name Fifi has been used for two tropical cyclones in the Atlantic Ocean and one in the south Indian Ocean.

The name was on two different lists in the Atlantic:

  • Hurricane Fifi (1958) – paralleled the Lesser Antilles without making landfall
  • Hurricane Fifi (1974) – a devastating system that killed thousands in Honduras and passed into the Pacific, becoming Hurricane Orlene

    • The name was also on one in the Southwest Indian Ocean:

  • Cyclone Fifi (1977)

    • The name was also on two of the Australian lists:

  • Cyclone Daphne-Fifi (1982)
  • Cyclone Fifi (1991) – killed 29 in Western Australia
