Yep, I knew that - and if you want to go there, think about Tortuga.
In English, it would be called "Turtle." Now who wants to go on an island named Turtle, it just makes it sound like the island itself is a giant turtle...

Isla Tormenta ( I think ) = Island of Storms.

On the part about Tortuga, I think there's been some confusion. It means 'tortoise', not turtle. Let's see... Isla Tormenta means Lost Island, Isla de la Avaricia means (Quite obviously) Island of the Avarice/Greed, and I think Ile d'Etable de Porc roughly means 'Stable Island of Pork'.

I think it translates to something along the lines of "Pig Pen Island"
