Nothing more than location. Hurricanes, typhoons and cyclones are all
rotating storms spawned in the tropics. As a group, they can be referred
to as tropical cyclones. Because of the Coriolis effect, these storms
rotate counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the
Southern Hemisphere.
Beyond that, what you call a particular tropical cyclone has everything to do with where it happens to form.
