Does anyone know of a website that will have the names of Comets

I remember seeing one while waking a girl home on a clear night but I
can't remember its name or the actual year.

according to Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Comet

Comet Bennett in 1970
or
Comet West in 1976
?

Comet West is the one. 1976 it was a cold, clear night and no light
pollution. It all comes back to me now. I even remember the girl!
