    Getting a bit lazy with the Gen names, aren’t they? X was X because it was undefinable. Marketers were unable to find any specific generalizations about Gen X. It wasn’t meant to kick off a lettered naming scheme.

      I don’t think they need a marketable name, they’re just a way to categorize groups of people based on age.
