no doubt about that!

Quote:and not make the absurd definition of Generation Alpha as born between 2010 and 2024. These cohorts will be adaptives, not prophets, whatever Pew calls them. Generation Theta would be a fine prophet name, but it also disrupts the alphabetical scheme, and as you say Generation Beta will not fly for a prophet group.

Names are names, and they sometimes stick even if they are not appropriate. Generation Alpha might not stick for an adaptive group, since alpha in current pop usage stands for hyper-masculinity, and adaptive generations are not like that. It could fit neo-Millennials better!

I've seen the term "Plurals" used for the latest adaptives, it might be appropriate and gain currency someday.
