I personally feel like ‘Baby Boomer’ was a very dumb name in the first place, (I could say the same for other generations) but they had their reasons. Gen Z is also derivative of Gen X (who ever ‘they’ are, couldn’t agree on a name, hence X). So Gen Z starts out as a fairly arbitrary, uncreative name that uses the most controversial letter of the alphabet. But like i said it’s arbitrary and largely unimportant. my distaste for that name comes from the fact that i usually see ‘Zoomer’ used unironically by ‘le millennial’ to refer to those darned Zoomers and their TikToks
