HURRICANE OTTO DISCUSSION NUMBER  13
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL       AL162016
1000 PM EST WED NOV 23 2016

A strong convective burst occurred near the center of Otto as an
Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft investigated the
cyclone near 0000 UTC.  This resulted in the aircraft reporting
central pressures near 977-979 mb, 850-mb flight-level winds in
excess of 100 kt, and dropsondes supporting surface winds of at
least 80 kt. However, these winds may have been associated with a
transient mesocyclone in the strong convection, as data from a
subsequent penetration showed a central pressure near 981 mb and
lower winds. The initial intensity is now 75 kt based on 700-mb
flight-level winds from the last aircraft pass, and there is a
larger than normal uncertainty about this value.

Is this the first case of an Atlantic TC keeping its name after crossing into the EPac?

It is since they changed the rule that it keeps the same name. These storms also made it across without losing tropical storm status. All had very similar tracks to Otto.
