The name Pitang was used for two tropical cyclones by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration ( PAGASA) and its predecessor, the Philippine Weather Bureau, in the Western Pacific Ocean:
- Typhoon Elsie (1966) (T6619, 22W, Pitang) – a Category 4 super typhoon that produced heavy rain over Taiwan.
- Typhoon Georgia (1970) (T7015, 17W, Pitang) – a Category 5 super typhoon that made landfall on Luzon at peak intensity.
The name Pitang was retired after the 1970 season, and was replaced by Pasing in 1974.
