How can you never have heard the term Gen X? Is it a US thing?
I googled it and the top few lists of generation names have Gen X on them, but sometimes there's another name next to Gen X that I've never heard of. (Thirteeners, Boomer Busters, etc.)
Is one of those more familiar to you?
Some of those lists call Millenials Gen Y and post-milleneals Gen Z, but I thought Gen Y was a name that never quite stuck for those in the late Gen X period.
